Here's latest detailed write-up on use of Top Tier gas - It's done by AAA http://bit.ly/29mF6tL
If you read the article note the excessive build-up on the cylinder head for top tier gas. Strange they don't comment on it.

Is the only name brand gas missing Sunoco?

I can't buy Wawa gas. They don't have 93 octane.
I have the PRL turbo kit and I push 447whp I've had 0 issues with Wawa gas.

You tuned for 91? Or is 91 the highest you can get locally?
Wawa around me sells 92.
Yup I'm tuned for 92. 1 octane at Ron/mon over 2 isn't the of the world..

So is 93 available in your area? I don't think I've ever seen 92 at a pump.
I run 91 in colorado because a) compared to prices for regular in upstate NY, I'm still saving about a dollar and b) because of the elevation. This is the only state I've ever seen 85 octane and the midgrade is 87. I get excellent gas mileage (34-36 mpg avg). Get my gas at the kum-n-go (I'm not making that up, almost wrecked my car the first time I saw it)

Most of the west and higher elevation states only have 91 octane as the highest octane available at the pump. 85/87/91 is very common. East coast 87/89/93 is the norm.
I'm used to the east coast, carolinas. It through me for a loop when I had to move to colorado...

I only run Exxon/Mobil/Esso 97 octane as it seems to give me better fuel economy than many others I've tried (BP/Shell/PetroCan/Pilot). My lifetime average is 39.9US MPG(5.895 L/HK or 16.96km/L) over the past 9,961.5 miles(16,031.4KM)since I bought it. It's a 2015 EX with CVT. I use a scanguage to get the most of my fuel. I drive about 60% highway. I also installed US model HF wheels for less drag. Live in southern Ontario. Love this car.
