We used 91 octane with a variety of ethanol blends during that 4 day road trip/tune to SEMA and back, and the base map is set around that. On 92 octane w/ethanol, the ECU will adjust and gain a bit of power.
The best way to view the base map is that it's going to be something we'll feel safe for, say, a dealership to have a customer run. As in, walk in off the street, buy the car, and doesn't involve themselves in tuning or careful gas selection after that point.
That's why we do suggest that, whenever it's possible, to get the car tuned for the local gas and to your preferences. But we certainly understand a lot of people are not near a tuner, United States/Canada is a big, big place, and so we are trying to ensure it's a fun drive even on that base map.
