Here in Canada the stations near me are as followed.

Esso, Petro Canada, Shell and Sunoco.

Sunoco is the only company with 94 octane "ultra 94" would this be the best gast to put in the gti?

Just use 91 if you dont want to spring for 94.. it's not going to hurt the car.

Sunoco I suppose. In the states most people would say Chevron with Techron, but that's just around here.

Is is Chevron better than Shell? I tried both but don't feel any difference. I know that some people say that Shell is better for cars with turbo. but IDK for sure.:iono:

I use BP, which makes my car run the best. Shell and Chevron are a close second.

Shell, Chevron is for old people with all that smoothness. :biggrin: Shell gives more punch IMO. :biggrin:

I've been using Shell for a long time. It's cheaper (where I live) and I swear I get a little bit better mileage using their gas. Arco is gas for those who are cheap.

Here's the inside scoop for western Canada!

I have worked for Shell and Petro-Canada, and have had the chance to compare mileage between the two, and Petro-Canada win's:thumbup:

Between Shell and Petro-Canada, my Rabbit GTI saw an increase in fuel economy by about 10% running Petro-Canada Gas.

Shell blends what is called a gap gasoline, it removes most of the midlle range from the blend, and the additive package was the cause for a lot of grief for new fuel gauges that rely on capacitance. The additive plated out on the capacitor, and provides a false fuel level indication. i.e more fuel than you think was there!

:burnrubber:

Nothing but Petro-canada gas in my high performance engines!

:evil:

Bah I think the highest here in Canada is 94..... That 100 must bet on a track.

I usually run the crap 91 that is all we can get regularly here in AZ. There is one station in Tucson that has the Sunoco 100 and I put that in before AutoX events or big GTG's. It really does make a difference especially in any FI engine (my MINI is supercharged).

Of course it is $5.50 a gallon right now.......:rolleyes:
