<![CDATA[No more 93 oct in Fargo??]]>The BP station I usually fill up at (Main ave. in west fargo) no longer carries 93. I went to fill up there a while back, and they changed to 92 oct.

This was the only station I knew of in the FM area with 93. Are there any other places to pick up 93 or even 94 at the pump? Thanks guys.

For those wondering why, the 100oct mapping allows for max potential power from my setup (more aggressive fueling/timing).

So I am always in search of the highest octane pump gas around, since I can't justify throwing down ~$80 a tank for the 100; atleast not all the time.

When 93/94 oct pump was available to me I swear the car drove smoother; probably just placebo. Oh well, guess I'll deal with the 92 sauce.

I'm going to UND, so I'm in GF most of the time for those who asked.
You Lie, I think you could afford it....

They recommend you replace the soft fuel lines, however this has been proven to be less of an issue in recent E85 formulations. Really all you need is injectors that are capable of flowing about 30% more than stock and an ECU capable of adjusting to the change.

I made the switch this past summer and will never go back.....race gas for less money than 89 octane? HELL YEAH!!

I have tried the premium from Brady's in Moorhead and noticed a slight difference in performance for the better, but it may have been in my head.

That the Octane Rating is the minimum of what the gas is, so for ex: if it's a minimum of 92, the actual octane reading could be 93, or 94, etc.

The best gasoline doesn't exist up in this area yet, and that is the "Top Tier Detergent Fuels" which are currently only offered in major metro areas. It will eventually make its way up here, but you will be ok with 91 or 92. I usually go to Jimmy's BP right off of 45th and interstate. They have 92 and is reasonably priced with others. You will not notice any difference between a 91 and 92 oct unless you are extremely high performanced.

I don't believe its as high of octane, but it is non-oxygenated, and supposedly thats supposed to be a better "performance" gas...
