I follow the manual, and use 87 octane in my car.

92 Octane @ Chevron only, shell is a good substitute as it's also tier1 gas.

this was an example I was looking for. do you have a k20a in your car? unless you are forced induction, your 94octane is going to waste!

08 Evo
94 Chevron

I tried Husky's 94 before, and I'm not sure if it's the ethanol additive they have in their fuel, but they seem to get used up faster..

It's the ethanol that gives Husky/Mohawk gas the higher octane level for cheaper, but because of the nature of ethanol, it burns quicker as well.

Wow, flipping over the "86" as "98" lol.
