Default App to find 93+ Octane gas near me?

I've been unable to find grades of gas above 91 octane near me (South Bay / Santa Cruz, CA) other than $9/gallon 100 octane racing fuel. Is there an app for this? I've tried GasBuddy, but it only shows Premium (which I assume is 91 octane) as a search criterion.

Sunoco blends their fuel in my area. They don't have 93 by you?

Martin, is 91 octane the default for "premium" in CA?

Here you go. No much out there in the west but this app seems to be missing some places.
It also listed a couple I didn't know of. In AZ there is a station near me that has 95 and 100 at the pump. I run a modified 880 2 stroke snowmobile motor that require high octane for high elevations. In Auburn WA the 76 has trick in a couple different varieties. 50% mix of 119 and 91 makes a nice blend and oh the smell of burnt race fuel. This is an expensive option. AV gas is a more economical mix when blended with 91. Pain to get as it jugs only anymore. They won't let you drive in anymore for security. Was sledding on MT Baker on Weds. and my sled was ripping. Buddy added AV gas and it only took a 1/2 gal. of 91 to top off my tank. Heavy AV gas package that day.

No one could touch my sled or the areas I climbed. Here is little vid that includes a small avy slide at the end. I was the only one hitting the right side of the hill which was the steepest. You can hear the motor pulling hard the whole way and just running out of momentum at the end as the front end got a bit to high. I worked the throttle to lower the front end and continued. Of all the fast toys this most fun and freedom of any of them.

This 2009 Ski-Doo is only a 146" track but the lightest sled they have produced to date.
Motor is bored to an 880 and a EZ Ride suspension which is the best climbing skid I have found.

Default 93 in NJ - Everywhere

I guess the folks in NJ appreciate quality. Almost all premium is 93 octane.

I know in South Jersey that all of the Shells, 76s, and Sunocos have 93 as an option. Many of the private label type stations carry 91 only. Super Wawas only carry 92 (not sure if it makes that much of a difference). Haven't been to a grocery store or wholesale club gas station yet.

Pennsylvania... not so sure. Somehow I can't find a Shell nearby so I fill up at the Sunoco near work or home.
