Default holy cow... just put 100 octane into the car.... i didnt think i would notice a difference

but i was hella wrong.. Car pulls much harder and runs much smoother... I dont even have a 100+ octane program but it certianly is driving better than before i pulled up to the station!!! Now i need to find some 104!

That is all...

Default I heard that the placebo effect is real

but seriously, on hot and humid summer days with the A/C on, these engines can use all the octane they can get - so even stock will run smoother on say 95 octane vs 93 (pumped up with t-sauce). Don't know if you are chipped or not but I assume you are.

almost all programs will adapt timing and what not up to 95 octane so its no placebo effect

Default i honestly dont think its the placebo.. i went into it VERY skeptical...

If anything, its certianlly running MUCH smoother... but im positive its pulling even better.

I do have APR weaksauce, and in CO we only get 91 octane... so its quite a jump up from that crap!
