still chevron has never failed me with good gas and its still 20-30 cents cheaper per gal than shell or 76.

theres a 76 station down by bonita canyon that has 100 or 108 oct for like 7-8 bucks a gallon. for what its worth if youe ever run the r switch if you have a jb2R or a dyno day

Is Exxon crap? I mostly run Exxon 93 because it's near my house. I try to use Shell when it's convenient.

LOL... none of these options are available in California!

around so cal, most gas stations are owned and operated by united oil. that includes acros, chevrons, and unocal.

but regardless, all gas stations use the same gas, just diff additives with diff detergent properties to keep your system clean. arco's additives don't burn completely and you get nasty build up.

top tier gas:
chevron-texaco, conoco-phillips (includes union 76), shell
