In California we only have 91 octane which I use and I tried an octane booster but that was a tankful ago(never to be used again). Here is the latest. I took her out on the freeway and in third gear under full throttle no problem. In Drive (sport mode) under full throttle... hesitation at 11-12lbs. boost. The tranny fluid is red as can be, no burn smell and smooth shifting. Maybe a tranny ECU glitch? I am banking on fuel delivery but I don't know what the hang up could be in the system.
