Why 91 and not 93...?


93 is available more on the east coast than west. I can't ever find 93 around here

It has a lot to do with altitude. The higher your altitude the less octane you need. Colorado sells 85 octane as regular unleaded. we are near sea level and most of our stations sell 93. Some chains do have 91 though.

I'm on the east coast and we can only get it at like 2 places in the whole state. I guess I just assumed the west had more of it.

When I had my last STi, I was in Ft. Hood, TX, therefore having 93 and E85 tunes.

Ordering Hella Supertones in red and Circuit Sports blue lugs tomorrow.

Also considering to order a Grimmspeed lightweight crank pulley in red. Thoughts? Opinions?

Exhaust should finally be shipping tomorrow as well, fingers crossed.
