I live in AZ and gas here is about 2.95 a gallon. It costs me about 30-35 buck when I fill up... Try http://www.gasbuddy.com and you can check gas prices nation wide or in your home town and see where its the cheapest

Down here Premium prices vary from $3.05-3.15, I usually fill entire tank sometimes from 2 sticks (orange light) for $35-37 bucks.

Looks like the weekend started a bit early in CA.




To the original question: Still don't understand how this applies to the Si or even a Civic in general. What does it matter how much other people are paying for gas? Look at what the gas costs at your local gas station. Then look up what the gas tank capacity is in the Si (or any Civic), which is about 13gal. Then do some simple math (which if you can't figure that out, you shouldn't be behind a wheel).

Miles per gallon should be your main point of research. And that can be found by using the search function.

Here in CA (Silicon Valley) Premuim (91 Octane) is $3.15 to $3.25. If I filled with JUST premium it would run me around $33 to $35 bucks.

However, because of the supercharger, I like running some 100 Octane with the 91 Octane. 100 Octane is $5.60 a gal. I run 4 gallons of 100 octane with 6 to 7 gallons of Premuim. The mixed cost per gallon runs me around $4.11 or $43 bucks a tank.
