It could be different depending on where you are from and what grade of gasoline you have access to.

For Socal, i think Chevron and Shell will be my top choice. Theres a noticeable gain in throttle response with Shell gasoline but that could just be me. Not to mention we only have access to 91 Octane from regular gas pumps here

In Canada, the "non brand name" stations get thier gas from the big petroleum companies. So it doesn't really matter who you get gas from up here (at least in Alberta), you'll always get Shell or Esso... you know... big brands.
