i would say ultra 94 only because i seen results in my civic all i use is ultra 94 and thats it well unless i wuz runnin low on fuel i have no other choice but so far been good, but when i took my motor apart usually there is some gunk around the valves well my valves were nice enough that i didnt clean them to sell them so i say ultra 94 owns all

Yeah, didn't you see that episode on The Simpsons where Homer went on a tour of the Duff Brewery where all differnt kinds of beer (original, draught, lite) all came from the same funnel? Now picture it in a refinery.

not necessairly true, they have different additives, as higher octane fuel has a higher resistance to preignition. however, it is nothing any of us will ever notice.

I think it varies on your day to day driving habits. I use the same gas company all the time (b/c of my discounts), and even on the highway set to cruise, it varies for me usually plus/minus 50 kms before gas light comes on. I take a lot of trips, so...

Octane rating is derived differently in North America.

"In most countries (including all of Europe and Australia) the "headline" octane that would be shown on the pump is the RON, but in the United States, Canada and some other countries the headline number is the average of the RON and the MON, sometimes called the Anti-Knock Index (AKI), Road Octane Number (RdON), Pump Octane Number (PON), or (R+M)/2. Because of the 8 to 10 point difference noted above, this means that the octane in the United States will be about 4 to 5 points lower than the same fuel elsewhere: 87 octane fuel, the "regular" gasoline in the US and Canada, would be 91-92 in Europe. However most European pumps deliver 95 (RON) as "regular", equivalent to 90-91 US (R+M)/2, and even deliver 98 (RON) or 100 (RON)."
