Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
Down here in Lawton we have one station that carries 93 octane but it has 10% ethenol in it. There are multiple places that carry 92 without ethenol here so that's what I get. I tried running the 93 when I first found it but I heard detonation on a hard pull on the highway (needless to say I got out of the throttle IMMEDIATELY).
For those that want to run octane booster, I found that the Lucas Oil Octane booster worked really well. A study claimed 3 octane numbers per 10 gallons of gas. Most other octane boosters only add 5-6 points (it takes 10 points to make 1 octane number.) This Lucas Oil stuff contains MMT just like torco. I ran it for about 6-8 months with no problems.
** edit ** Best of all, it can be found at any O'rielly's or AutoZone.

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
Unfortunately with the 2005 and up mustangs the plugs go bad with octane booster. Torco and track gas are the better solutions

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
Found 93 octane at a Shell on 104st and I-44 in OKC. I have a whipple supercharger is it ok to go with 93 octane on my 91 tune? I assumed extra octane would not hurt. I swear I can tell a difference but who knows.

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
Its always ok to go up in octane...just never the opposite.
The 93 Octane will work just fine as long as its good gas. With a higher octane gas you actually have a little more play with the tune and can get a little more agressive with the timing.
Using a higher octane gas than what your tuned for sometimes dampers perf just a tad...BUT adds a certain safety factor when boosted

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
I have been told but not for sure on this. The gas stations get their fuel here and Tulsa on refines 91. If a station has 93 in the area they are more than likely bringing it in from Texas. The cost associated with doing so is not worth it for most places.

Re: Oklahoma 93 Octane Directory
The Shell station on 75 just north of Okmulgee has 93 and I think it is real gas.
Torco FTW BTW.
