93 octane fuel in Los Angeles?

Hey guys--

Does anyone know of any 93 octane in the LA area? All that is sold--to my awareness--is 87,89, and 91. Any ideas?

There's a place in the S.F.V. at DeSoto and Vanowen that has 2 racing gases a the pump - 96 and 100. The 100, if i remember correctly is leaded gas. I have no idea what the station is though. I'll be nearby there this week and let you know more info. I haven't purchased gas there since I had my 66 Mustang and the 100 was teh cheapest and best around.

the guys running boost can crank up the boost pressure with higher octane typically. N/A guys won't get anything out of it unless if you're pinging.

It's called Alliance Gasoline. No 93 though, only 96 & 100 like you mentioned.

The ECU will recognize 93, and it will compensate for it.

Pumping 100 octane is definitely going to get you some extra ponies, I'll promise you that.
