around here all gas is 10% ethanol (corn crap). In response to the question, we run regular in the Yaris (Shell if possible), and I run Shell V-Power in the WRX (and nothing else if I can help it)

Shell gas any good? I heard chevrons techron runs well, I'm one of those people who think premium is best no matter what lol.

Have you noticed the wrx will burn quality fuel quicker than ethanol fuel aswell?

I use regular 87 10% ethanol (CT). Premium won't do anything extra for you. My fussiness is that I only use top tier gas which is either Shell or Mobil in my area. I also heard that Chevron is the best but it's not available here.

All of our premium here is 10% ethanol so its the all the same. There is ONE sation I can by non-mixed prem from, but its a ton of money (like $.25 more per gallon)
