100 Octane - google Sunoco Race for locations

In Baltimore $7 gallon.

Little NOTE: IF you are in a state that requires Ethanol added to the fuel the difference between a non-Ethanol and Ethanol fuel is huge. Ethanol has a lower BTU and therefore LESS (edit) potetial power than Gasoline. if your state has 93 with eth. and you put 100 wich doesn't you feel a HUGE difference regardless of your tune. You'll need to run 5 gallons through before your computer takes full advantage. Disconnect the bat for 30 sec for best results.

let me see if i understand. 93 oct with added ethanol is better then regular 93 without eth ??

and where at in B more can i get 100oct for 7$ ? cuase i live 35 min from b more. its worth it for me to drive there fill up a 10 gallon conatiner and drive back , rather then paying 50 $ for 103 for 5 gallons.......

Fuel with Ethanol is WORSE than non-eth fuel.

Here is a sunoc Site locator and great info about fuels. Check for Sunoco 260GT fuel or Cam2GT. be careful with higher octanes as some contain lead - very bad for your cats! Not the kitty's of course.

8000 LochRaven Blvd in Towson is where I buy mine.

good deal thanks , towson is even closer. do i have to run a cycle through (liek 5 gallons of the 100oct) before the ecu adapts so i crank the boost up? or could i just add teh race gas when my tanks iscompletely empty?
