    I gotta go with Petro Canada. They are open 24/7 in most cases, and their pay-at-pump makes it easy so I don't have to talk to the generally bitter/sarcastic cashiers.

    Haha pay at the pump for Esso too! The Speed-Pass is my favorite! Just swing it over a spot and your ready to pump!

    Esso has 92 octane. Does anyone sell 93 or 94 in Calgary?

    Octane rating between 91 and 92's a scam. I seriously can't find the difference between Shell 91 and Esso 92. Petro Canada fuel just blows, co-op seems to use either Shell or Esso but is full serve. The best fuel for power (turbo cars anyways)? Mohawk! I run the highest boost + biggest power without detonation (for pump gas) on Mohawk, which is rated at 92 octane. The Mohawk in Dalhousie station rocks, 24 hours full serve for the lazy people!

    Looking at the poll, looks like I'm the only one that knows the Mohawk secret... I know Toma knows tho... uses it in both his drag cars .

    Does Mohawk use any ethanol in their 92 octane? Do they have self-serve? (I prefer to fill my own tank.)

    Yes they use ethanol (up to 10% IIRC), and yes they have self serve too.

    I''ll go to either Shell or Mohawk, what ever is closer. Its funny that rage brings this up as during some test and tuning, I myself noticed a noticable difference between shell 91 and mohawk 92.

    You obviously dealt with me a time or two when I was working at a gas station
    Drag racing is for fast cars. Solo 2 is for fast drivers.
