I'd use 93, but not available in our town, so I use 91. Ive used 93 a couple times when out of town and it was wild that it improved its performance as much as it did. Much more take off, etc.

But im using the best I have access to.
Funny as Sam's near me has 91 and about a mile away at same price Costco has 93. Costco's is 100% better in terms of layout and ease of access. Paid $3.89 last week....but looked today and it was up to $3.98. This is Iowa and I live close in IL where 87 is $4.29.

I use and recommend Lucas as well. After watching the SVT video on tuning and dyno testing a Bronco Raptor it was apparent that even suspect 93 can pull a lot of timing. I add a little Lucas when I fill up to make sure I am getting at least 93. It makes a difference especially here with our winter gas blend.

Also of note... Costco has tier one gas and Sam's does NOT!

When that Top Tier list first came out BP wasn't listed as a Top Tier gas. I have a BP station a mile from my house so I have always used BP gas. I contacted BP about not being listed and they came back with their gas exceeds all the Top Tier requirements and went on about how great their gas was.

BP is now listed as a Top Tier gas.

I use Love's gas stations when I'm traveling due to great coffee, food selection and 10 cents off per gallon if you have their app. Love's is not listed as a Top Tier gas so I just emailed Love's and asked them why they aren't listed. I'll post their response as soon as I get it.

I fill the Raptor up with 93 at the Casey's close to my office. Across the street from Casey's is a Jump Start which has E85, and most of the pump gas is ethanol blends. There's about a 10% difference in ethanol content between their winter and summer E85. For my CTS-V, gauge reads 76% in summer and around 65% in winter months. I like that tune as the V just adjusts on the fly whatever gas you put in it, but I run E85 most of the time with more frequent oil changes.

Otherwise for the Raptor it's just 93 at Casey's or 91 at QuickTrip's if I need gas and I'm not close to the office. Hope to mod it and run E85 in the near future.
