I've always adhered to the "it's all the same base stock, so it's all mostly the same" mantra and it's done me fine. But, I haven't researched gas in a long time and am wondering if anyone is more educated than I on the subject. Especially in the realm of CA gas.

I typically use 91 octane ARCO, but am starting to hear good things about the newer Shell V-Power formulations. Anybody have any opinions/data/experience?
