94 octane gasoline

where can I find 94 gas in southern california? and what will happen if I use 91 on an S14 blacktop? Will there really be that much of a difference on the engine? Performance wise or anything else? How unsafe is it to use the 91 on an S14? I'm just wondering because I got a nice price for an S14 blacktop swap and I was told not to run anything under 91 octane on an s13 redtop, and not to run anything under 94 on an s14 blacktop.
1. I have never seen 94 octane in southern california.
2. dunno how much it costs.
3 dunno if its gonna be worth it to go through the extra hassle of finding 94 octane all the time and maybe just get an s13 engine since I'm going to mod it anyway.
Any people with S14 blacktops in southern california have any input on this?

Dont know of anywhere...there is a myth that there is a 95 octane pump at a 76, but have yet to actually find it. Run 91, Wont hurt. You can run octan booster if your that worried.

Moved to the turbo forum, post in the right area

there is a station that sells 94 and 95 octane gasoline somewhere around woodland hills. Not sure if it was a 76 though. I have never seen it personally, but my old boss's neighbor used to use it on his mini-bikes and told me to get some there once before. I forgot exactly where it is though.

There is a pump in Woodland hills on the corner of Vanowen and De Soto that sells Trick Racing fuel octane is 94 or 95 I believe. I know that in Vegas the 76 statin by the Palms casino sells 100 at the pump.
