Regular is 87 octane and Hi-Test is 91 octane. Some stations will sell an 89 octane as well. And there is also E85 at select locations.

You will want the E85.

you will need an adjustment to your current 93 tune. But you are going up in elevation a little so do some logs and watch your knock. You def. will need a retune for the summer in AZ. 112+ deg.

91 unless you can find the rare 76 gas stations that sell 100 at the station.
