Most people that daily drive do. If there is no timer involved, what's the point?Just looking at the profiles on the left, there aren't many Mustangs posting in this thread that have a transmission that can be changed by a tune...:lol:
Plus (pun intended), who buys a GT and runs 87 Octane?
Clean burn, and giving your knock sensors a rest. I've seen a slight mileage bump and a smoother idle with 91/93 over the times I was forced to get 87.
93 won't burn any cleaner than 87. Ford recommends 87, so that's what I run.
No, lol. Also, no one wants to start their pull at 1,000. Not great to lug the motor.Okay, one very serious question: does this tune really give you an extra 40 ft lb at 1,500 rpm, which is the most important claim and the best reason I'd have for buying it?
I'm in 6th gear between 1,000 and 1,500 rpm a lot while commuting — unfortunately you didn't start your pull until 2,000 rpm.
:shrug:
Wife's actually seems to get better mileage on 87 vs 93 from the sand station. She's at 20 vs 18.5. Mine on E-85 gets 13.5 lol.
93 octane contains no more or less cleaning detergents than 87 octane. You're car won't live any longer running 93 octane than 87.
Less chance of knocking, yes. Either way, you're only losing a slight amount of horsepower by running 87.
Why are you running non ethanol fuel? You will only yield an ~ 3% increase in fuel economy and are paying ~35% more for the non ethanol fuel. Just curious.
maintenance costs down the road. Fewer mineral deposits. Longer seal life. Less chance for fuel related issues.
