Default 93 Octane?

Hey there everyone! We made it here to Southern Cali! Just got to San Diego last weekend and so far are loving it! It'll get better when we're all unpacked, too! Say, I understand that most SD gas stations only sell 91 Octane as their "Premium" grade. With my APR software in my A3 I CAN switch the program from my current 93 Octane to 91 but would prefer not to. Can anyone suggest where in or around San Diego I might find a station selling 93 Octane? We live in North Park so closer the better but will, of course, drive for the 'good stuff'!

TIA!

Default Second Question?...

Can anyone recommend a GOOD Detail shop in San Diego. I'm talking an all day job where you might pay near $300 with clay and polish and shampoo and all hand work, not some $99 'special'. Agan, TIA and sorry for all the 'newb' questions!

Default only way you'll get better than 91 is by blending in some 100 octane.

at about $7+ / gallon.

yes it sucks, but somehow we all deal with it anyhow :-/
