Same here. Even after the 199whp run, John did some some logging and found I was running really rich. After he leaned it out a little feels like a beast hehehe.

Yea not sure if he did something new to my maps but from 3000-5000rpm my car acts like its ready for war, it never felt that way before. But now that im looking at your stock graph with tune graph u can see that from about 3200-5000 theres about a 7-10hp increase across and theres a 10-15tq increase and thats why it probably feels so good now. Im actually loving that its in that area because thats normally the range i drive in everyday

Wow that's the tune I want! low end torque is much more useful in everyday driving

It's about 5 miles away and 25 cents cheaper than what I pay, but since the mpg goes down I think it'll cost more than 91

Prime example, an old bottle of vodka doesn't layer and get funky. Ethanol doesn't break down like gas just absorbs water if it's not sealed.

My Car finally arrived!
So next step is the Stg1 tune...
Is there a optimized map for 102 octane available?

From what I've heard, race gas didnt yield any considerable gains.... nothing like corn juice.

102 octane is standard here. i also have access to E85 20 min. away but there should be an elegant solution to drive them both before I go on E85

True, but why pay 7-10$ a gallon to yield the same gains...and engine safety... as 4$ a gallon 93?
