mohawk/hucky add ethanol to thier fuels. burn cleaner and they can make higher octance for cheaper. some ppl don't like it cuz you burn more of it (ur tank does not last as long)
Safeways the **** 5c/litre off cupons

$1.56 for 91 here.....last time I checked.

Back to the topic at hand.

I'm boosting the KA. I'll try to keep track how much it will cost, not an estimate, but a total. This will take a few months, but we'll see how it goes.

IMO, best way to go. Easy to find ka24de blocks to build outside of your engine bay.

Very smart decision in turbo'ing the KA. You will be surprised how well it will hold its own against other setups.

Yep, down by me on L.I. they have up to 110 octane also. The only caveat is you have to put it into a 5 gallon tank, and then pour it into your gas tank yourself. Wierd, but thats the law. They don't want anything that flammable near the rest of the pumps I guess.

Well well you guys are lucky..i cant find anything here other then the cool blue some performance shops sell, its 5 gallons of 110 octane for 35 bucks. How much a gallon is it over there?

Yep, there are some things we have over the west coast.

But the price usually ranges from $3.99 to like $5.99? Not sure about the $5.99, but its round-a-bouts. I'm sure it went up a bit since last year, which was the last time I visited this one gas station in my friend's SR powered S13.

Well the cool blue 5 gallon containers(110) cost 35..so roughly 7 bucks a gallon which is overkill haha. And they sell 100 octane for the same price. Wish they would lower the price a lil
