Experience with Octane specific APR?

Has anyone bought or driven the 93 octane chip from APR? It sounds good for the 180Q in lieu of an x-chip not being available....

I had mine upgraded at Asheville - there is a noticable difference.

I got it @ Asheville too... had 91 octane before. Smoother more linear ! You do feel more ...

power. I've always trusted APR (they have also helped me out when asking technical questions about stuff not even related to what they sell - primarily MAF issues). They are a solid, professional company. I also like the fact that they take precautions when developing their software so that the engine isn't exposed to too much wear & tear.
