Shell V-Power 91. It's also TopTier, as Honda recommends. Used that exclusively in my 2006 Acura TSX for the 11 years I had it, and not a single engine issue whatsoever, and never put any fuel additives in the tank either. The engine still purred the day I traded it in for the Civic.
In my area, Shell is a little difficult to find, Sunoco a bit easier. Shell is my primary choice, when I can get it. Wish we had Chevron in Pennsylvania, prefer their additive package. As I travel and have to make Toptier choices, I've also used Valero and Marathon. As long as it's on the list I printed from the Toptier site, I'm ok with it..Never tried anything other than 87 other than a tank of 89 Shell when they ran out if 87, no problems, but no difference in either performance or mileage. Never had a fuel or engine performance issue with any Toptier fuel, so I stick with them, nice that there's a standard you can count on, & no additives needed.

My last car had to take 93 octane (Volvo S60 2.5T). I'm happy now that I get to save a ton at the pump using 87 in my EX-T. I try to stick to stations on the Top Tier list, but I don't go too far out of my way if there isn't one nearby. Admittedly I've filled up at Sheetz and GetGo a handful of times, but I do try to avoid non-Top-Tier gas when I can. I doubt a tank here and there will hurt anything as long as it doesn't become habitual.

93. Pretty much every gas station on LI is 87, 89, 93 so 93 it is. I try to go to any halfway decent station, usually speedway (formerly HESS) because it's right near both my job and the train station that I use for school so it's convenient. IDK, I never felt actively seeking out certain stations like Shell or anything was worth it, but if there's a shell and a shit hole nearby, I'm picking Shell.

2018 Si, it gets regular 87 (about $2.19/gallon in Florida) because it's my daily beater so idc, it runs perfectly fine and even gets 40mpg on the highway still. My average is 32mpg combined and I drive it aggressively.

last fill-up was regular at Shell. Was trying Fred Meyer but it's not Top Tier. Haven't tried Costco yet but will be soon. Usually 87 or 89 octane I think.

Man, I use some of Sam's Club stuff. 93 for 2.90, really good prices when you're a member compared Sheetz down the street at 3.25. :hmm:

Will be going to Shell for V-Power 91 for my vehicle. Just sucks that I cannot use the speed pass to pay like I did at Esso! :(

95 octane E10. The dealer/show room said 93 octane is good but is praising Shell VPower (which I believe is E10/95 here). Unfortunately, the Shell stations are on a other side of the route I usually take.
