We have 3 station in the South Bay that sells 100 octane.
1. There's a Unocal 76 off Almaden Expressway in SJ
2. Vp station in Los Altos. Corner of Magdalena and Foothill Expressway. They sell 93 and 100 Octane
3. There's another station in Woodside off woodside rd.
I've read a few articles in Excellence magazine stating Porsche rate their HP numbers based on 98 Octane in Germany. There's an article on the latest issue by GMG racing. In short they state that California cars who has only 91 octane readily available is not geting the HP ratings advertised by Porsche due to poor Octane rating on the fuel we buy.
I also own a 88 944 turbo S which is slightl modified. Due to the boost increase I will not run below 93 Octane in that car. I do it for detonation insurance. With the higher Octane I am able to run on higher boost which gives me more power.
