Most gas stations here in Phoenix have 91 octane with 10% ethanol. I finally found one in Scottsdale with 100 octane no ethanol $7.99 a gallon. Put some in when I was empty and OMG!! Night and day difference! Don't know if it was all in my head but throttle response and acceleration seemed soooo much better.

Always 93.

Usually do QuickTrip or Kroger gas. Did last tank with Chevron (with Techron) and actually noticed a difference in mileage.
Chevron gas gave me almost 2 more mpg's. Plan on doing a few more tanks and see if it goes will, if so I will only use Chevron from now on. Problem with Chevron though is it can be from 5 -10 cents more per gallon than everyone else.
