Local sources 100 octane unleaded gas
If you know a source or location (not sears or laguna), I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.

Thanks.
The one in San Jose is at Almaden/Foxworthless.
I want the metal cans as they are easier to carry in 3 gallon increments (fit 8 in the car) and since they are sealed, they don't smell as bad.

I made my "homebrew" of toluene, mystery oil and ATF to get my TT at least 93 to 96 oct. Worked great for me. If you do toluene, just don't go more than 30%.
I used to by 5 gals drums of toluene - much cheaper. However, they might think you're running a meth lab.

I think there are definite gains with NA or FI'd, especially here in Cali. The gains may not necessarily mean more hp in cooler seasons, but the lack of timing pull during hotter months. Or, if you car is pulling timing (even during the cooler months), you'll feel like you've gained power - really, you'd just be getting the power back.
Mix in 3 gals to get to 93oct, you'll feel the difference. I've lived in places that offered 93 (east coast), and 92 (PNW)...even 92 makes a difference! The northeast gets 94oct! 91 is crap, in any car. Even the manual states, "91 octane or higher."
If you want pump locations...there's the two mentioned above...but also available at Sonul Tree Gasoling off 680 and Andrade (3004 Andrade Road). There's a 76 in Stockton and Manteca that also sells 100 at the pumps (Stockton's open 24hrs ).
