In Hawaii the highest octane gas available is 92. It seems that the formula that Shell puts in its gas gives the best performance. Thanks for all your opinions. Pics of my new SIM 2SS/RS to be posted soon.

Welcome to the forums and congrats on the new ride!!

I use 93 either from Sunoco, Shell, Exxon (who ever is the cheapest for 93) .... or anything that decent when my gas light is on lol!

Enjoy the ride on the island!!

Sunoco 93.
The grocery store we shop every week owns the station, and for every $100.00 you spend, you get $.10 off up to $.30 a gallon. I can usually get the $.30 a gallon discount every couple weeks. That REALLY helps!
