Whenever I've used Wawa 93, my car doesn't run as well and my gas mileage goes down. Its weird. I used to use wawa regular in my truck all the time, never had a problem. I guess the EVO is alittle more senstive then my truck was, either that or the 93 they use is crap, since its usually cheaper then most other gas stations.

Sunoco 94 is a waste of money, and most 93 gas is better anyway.

Keep in mind that high octane fuels are blends, so it is possible that you're not getting the proper blend and that your ECU is pulling timing to account for it.

If you're talking about the Shell V-Power, its 93.

x2 sunoco 94 is a blend of gasoline and ethanol. Ethanol gas has other bad points, but for the situation going around now, the worst part is that it costs more, and actually burns faster.
