Default 100 oct program is useless if you don't have 100oct fuel

the car will prolly ping and run poorly. I'd get an anti theft or a lockout program if I was you, espically with you living in CA

Default 100 octane will actually be good for your car as you will see less timing retard...

no the 100octane program is going to make up for that by addding more timing to give you more power, but in the end if it is setup properly it shouldnt make it any less reliable. You just don't want to run a drop of 91 on a 100 octane program so make sure you switch programs only after you have the tank completely full of at least 100. cheers! Mike

Default Get the 93 map then. The 100 map will not help without 100, although

if you can get 100 (I can for 5.89 a gallon) it is great fun!!! Cheers
