Good points, thanks alot for the feedback. Well see, I drive very aggressively, so if the ECM retards the timing = less performance, that wouldn't be good. I don't think 87 has ever been filled, only 89 and 90. If I went with a midgrade 90 octane ethanol blend, would I still get the more aggressive performance?
