man thats the station i use, dont use the 91, i mix my gas to be safe and 95+
but thanks for the notice, yeah ive learned gas is different at all stations, i never knew, but evaporation rates, water condensation and the mtbe lots of variables. shell and chevron are good choices from what i hear.

I love not having to use 91 octane. heheh
If those gas stations get caught doing that sort of shady business the person responsible can and will be sent to prison. They don't mess around with stuff like that.

I filled with 100 octane last night. I Still have big problems!!! I think things are seriously messed up in there. As of four days ago I had no problems .I did my brake swap filled with gas and now the engine seems to be knocking like crazy. I have never heard a WRX knock but it has to be what the noise is. Man I wish Gruppe-s was open today. Anyone available to diagnose knock?
