In the comments I believe he said he drove around on the mixed fuel for around 20 minutes or so Lmao

It does take a little while driving for the car to re-learn, but the effect in the seat of the car is big and even the sound of running 87 then 93 is different quite quickly. It isn't a re-tune. the car's sensors will detect different levels and adjust farely quickly. I would say for safety, if the car is running optimally on 93 then you go throw 87 in it and take it to a track the ecu would retard ignition pretty quickly to avoid damage.

Yes, protection mechanisms will back it down if you went from 93 to 87 but it isn't the same the other way around. Table re-learning for advance is much slower for the same protection reasons.

That's funny, that guy thinks you can just put the fuel in, pull out of the gas station and compare them? You have to give the car a while of driving on the 93 so the ECU can re-learn, adapt the tables for the higher octane... :headbonk:

I though that too but he needs to pay dumb and over simplify things for the idiot masses that need to be spoon fed useful information to prove a point. His other video are the same way
