I may have to find another station when I get my car back.
Yep in AZ it is called flex fuel and only has to like 50%. It is hit and miss in Las Vegas as well. I just buy it buy the barrel so I can get a consistent 77 plus rating on pump fuel. Ignite is always e90!

I will be ordering some Ignite E85 (2 barrels) and Ignite Red E90 (2 barrels) in the future. LOL E85 for when the station runs out and E90 for some fun.

Mine has been boosted for four and a half years. Still brings a smile to my face every time I hear the cold start rumble of the exhaust, but especially when the turbo spools up the first time.

Mine doesn't spool up, it rips. The sound I get from the turbo's, exhaust, and engine are just nuts. It is very crisp sounding. Just sounds like a dang racecar flat out. I kinda wonder what folks hear as I go by.
