Gas ???

Does anyone know where i can pick up 93 octane gas. Dont say holiday because i work there and we've already phased it out. We're at 92 now.

 

I know the Super America here in Mound has 93 oct, and they also carry 100 oct race gas for the guys who run race sleds around here.

the 100 octane is something between 4 and 5 bucks a gallon, dont know exactly how much as I never pay attention to that stuff.

I'd hop on fueleconomy.com and use their gas station finder, and just give a couple of calls around to stations and ask them what octane their premium is....Or just go for a cruise.

 

Blueplanet HOLIDAY gas is some of the worst crap you can put in your car!

There is a BP Amoco that sells 93 Octane off of Hwy96 and 35E in centerville, I highly recommend BP first on any EVO or STi for pump gas. If you are heading N on 35E take the Hwy 96 exit and turn left crossing over the bridge, go up about 2 blocks and on the left side is the BP Amoco right next to the Caribou Coffee. If your tuner is conservative you should be able to run BP 92 without any problem/damage to the engine.

I would NEVER put that crap Holiday or Super America gas in my car, there have been a couple of people that have done timing/knock sensor data logging with a bunch of local gas vs. BP and besides BP/Shell most of the other gas showed excessive knock/timing/detonation issues. I will try to see if I can find the article, I believe the person did a test in either the STi or EVO just can't remember which one. Either way it was a very interesting read.

 

Look who it is. You still have the EVO or did you switch?

Same story here although I heard it from place I bought my bike from. Holiday gas is a no no and BP is one of the best.

 

is hard to find 93 octane well beside holiday shizzle ...I'm running 92 non oxy plus methanol... race gasmixure

 

I live in BC but work in Edina.

 

I will be going to the "dark side" in a couple of weeks after owning 2 Evo's in the last 2 years (2005 MR Graphite Gray - 1st, and 2005 GSR w/SSL - 2nd), I have to have a couple of things taken off/out of my EVO before I take delivery on the STi.

I put money down and will be trading in my EVO for a 2007 STi Limited in Urban Gray next week.

Not trying to be mean but I don't see alot of EVO --> STi people, seems the other way around. Maybe it's just where I have been spending most of my time.

Webcrawlr, for the life of me I can't remember who you are, and you aren't on the buddy list on Evomn.net, please refresh my memory...

 

Cool. If I didn't get the deal I did on an 06 I would have for sure picked up an 07 limited. Bad ass car!

Minnesota Sport Bike Riders.... that help? :biggrin:
