No I am running 89 octane. Remember a gmstg1 is 22ish psi on premium fuel and I have a slightly bigger turbo

Well I know I have only 89 in it so I can't really turn it up even if I wanted to. I'm getting used to the lack of power but I'm also back on stock intercooler so I'm fine with it

Iv had fun in winter with k04. On a dry cold day it lays it down good. I doubt it will with Zfr though. Unless I'd do a pull in 4th

I just wanna make it through with no more damage. Cars git enough power for winter. I want less torque for better traction and to not wear down my tires so fast

Well sad day but my balt is out away. And had to put it away broken. Over the last little while it's been acting up randomly going pig rich cruising down the highway then my check engine light flashing due to misfire. It was hit and miss but since I went back to pump gas it's been doing it non stop . I think it may be a shot 02 sensor but am going to have to dig in more to this.

^That sucks.

Washed my car today. Used a brush I feel so bad.

Anyway rear brakes are noisy again. Need to pull them apart and grease things up.

Did a pull to check for knock again but on Petro and it was fine. Maybe Shell isn't as great as everyone says.

Ya it's snowing here so I put my winters back on thinking about putting a speed limiter on since I'm scared of the lsj wheels and spacers.

Ya that really blows now you'll prob think about it all the time until the spring

I'm just saying in general. Everyone I know claims Shell is the best.

the reason they say shell is the best is because it gives them good gas mileage, that's all anyone ever compares with gas, 10 bucks says not one of them actually log their car and see what their car is actually doing on the gas. we do, so we know. if those performance guys with vettes and stuff would actually know whats happening with their cars they would run from shell. its crap. id say co op is better than shell at this point.

The only sad part is I like the free car wash coupons at Super Splash. Ha.

I do get a free coffee with a fill the Grunthal Petro though.

Coop is my choice gas for dd at least. I'm sure you could get more timing out of husky 94 but as is I actually get low rpm kr with shell and husky but not coop.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't switch even once tuning as I don't car if I can get every last degree of timing out of it I just want my refund lol.

Plus there are no huskys anywhere near me on any route too or from work.
The husky by my house closed about 5 years ago and Mohawks don't seem to carry 94 anymore.

Low rpm KR is usually false anyways. It WOT that really matters.

When I was on 22 psi I was using co op, I tried shell and say knock at wot. I figured maybe it just needs a tune for shell. Was wrong lol.

Car issues after using a 10gph meth nozzle. Now car has funky a/f ratio. Will go rich, like 13s then swing to 16 then car jerks a little then it straightens out. And it backfires pretty loud when getting off the gas. Tried going back to non meth tune, does the same. Whatever happened screwed up something. Any ideas? Hope I didn't break anything that will cost a fortune

Try going back to the smaller nozzle but turn up the pressure
