Re: C5 Owners which gas stations do U use? Does it Matter... (XTrooper)
I was at the dealership last Friday and my service tech. showed me a dyno on a 2002 Z06 that dyno'd Amoco premium gas vs Shell premium gas. The Amoco gas showed an improvement of 7 hp and 7 lb/ft vs. the Shell gas. But again who knows what, if any, variables affected that...like a crooked owner watering down the gas, leaking tank...? Anyway it is food for thought.

I got my highest trap speed ever at the track after using 100 octane (113.55 MPH). If you buy high octane, always make sure it's unleaded.
I found a listing on the Sunoco web site of their stations that sell 100 octane GT unleaded: http://www.racegas.com/Racegas/gt100...ations_ALL.htm
"Sunoco GTTM 100, which has the highest octane rating of any street legal fuel, is now available at selected retail locations. Sunoco GT 100 is designed for high performance street cars, muscle cars, classics, street rods, motorcycles, karts and marine applications. Sunoco GT 100 contains no metallic compounds to harm catalytic converters or oxygen sensors. It contains a comprehensive additive package for greater engine protection and reduced fuel system deposits as measured by the BMW test. Sunoco GT 100 is also compatible with virtually all two-stroke synthetic and mineral based motor oils. GT 100 Unleaded is available at selected locations throughout the U.S. In certain areas, GT 100 Unleaded is available under the CAM2 GTTM 100 label."
