Just use 91, you don't have any reason to run high octane. Octance boosters are crap.

You won't find leaded gas coming out of a pump. You have to purchase it separately and put it in your self. Some stations however (back east) have just a leaded race fuel pump off to the side, but you won't find it side by side the others.
