56th street and Bell had the higher octane fuel a while back. There are some places out in the Gilbert area which my brother in law buys from too. I sold him my car and he runs the higher octane too.
You can buy really high octane in a 5 gallon can to keep in the garage also. When it's time to fill up dump some in the tank and mix down at the gas station.
Here's something fun. This is a stock Porsche 996 twin turbo X50 on 91 octane fuel and 100 octane fuel. The car backs out big timing to run on the lower octane and looses quite a bit of power. This is a 3rd gear pull for the Porsche with the car in motion. It's over 55 HP loss! Naturally the Porsche computer makes short work of this to keep the engine safe, but most Cobras don't have such elaborate software and hardward for engine management.
