Not basically the same, they ARE the same. It's the same as GMC compares to Chevrolet.

There's a Mobil 12 miles west and one 8 miles east. Other than that they are no top tier stations in my area. There are a couple of Sunocos close by and that is what I try to use. Strange they aren't on the top tier list. Must not be willing to pay the fee. And all the stations around here have corn squeezins.

proven fact...Shell 93 melts rear tires the weirdest thing.
costs more but you get what you pay for.
mine gets a few drops of Torco Accelerator on race day just in case.

Exclusively Shell and Chevron, although I live in the mountains so all I can get is 91 octane.

My tuner told me to switch from Shell 93 to BP 93. He stated he has seen detonation on the dyno with Shell and other brands.
