Default High Octane in Calgary

Any know where to get the highest octane in Calgary without going to the airport?
I'd like to run some "test laps" of Highway 66 in K-country with some 94 octane.

91 at most pumps is the best I've found to date.

Thanks guys.

Don't your Chevron stations have 94 Octane?

EDIT: It has just dawned on me that you may not have Chevrons in Alberta.

That would be Super Clean 94 vs Super Clean. I can't say for sure if the Petro-Canada's in Calgary have the Super Clean 94. You could always toss in a bottle of octane boost for your high speed run.

no luck with Calgary Petro-Canada's (91's the best I've seen so far), found 92 at Mohawk.
I'm leery about pouring in any additives, even though they're probably already in the pump gas.

When I lived in Alberta, Shell had 94 octane for my Talon. This was in Brooks, not Calgary. By the time I moved to Calgary, I was less interested in high performance and more interested in getting through school so I don't know if the Shell's there have 94.

Now that I'm out of school, I am of course back into high performance but not living in Calgary. In Ottawa, though, there's lots of 94 octane.

Anyways, give Shell a try or like was already mentioned, there are lots of octane boosters out there.

Mohawk might have the highest octane at 92.
However, with the elevation here, you don't need 94, that is why you're not going to see anything higher than 91.

Default Found it!

Found the high octane pump gas! (besides the custom blends you can get at Bp near the airport).

You can get 94-octane at the Mohawk in Ogden, and later this year they may have a 94 pump at the Mohawk on McKnight.

Thanks to Davenport Racing for the tip.
