Great, Tyler only has 91 available unfortunately.

Depending on what your motor decides it likes, you may be able to get away with yet more than him.

The nice part is, I don't have to touch the NA part of the tune once we add boost.

So you're out of boost response will be the same as it was NA.

The horizontal column is MAP, and up to "0" or atmospheric its NA tuning. Boost is just extending the table to the right for MAP values above atmosphere.

That would be awesome if you could do one for me. I'm waiting in the other group buy to finish so I can get mine. I'm ruining n/a and my mods are f5 short ram intake, Invidia catback exhaust and DC sports headers. I'm also running on 93 octane as well

Any torque found ANYWHERE in the new rev range will be put to use

You've seen my Emails No need to shy away from an essay! If you're looking for more details I will provide every thing I can!

Also I am running the highest available octane in CA, 91. This tank saddly is super low quality "Flying J" but typical fuel ups are Chevron or 76

I read an article in GrassRoots Motorsports recently on fuel grades and tunes. Did a crap ton of tests on a dyno with a miata and ran 87 through E85 and even methanol IIRC diff between 93 and 100 was less than 5hp... Still, if your chasing peak numbers

All depends on the motor, 93 and 100 on an NA motor thats only 9.0-9.5:1 CR will illustrate that there is only a bit more to be had. Now 10.5-11.0:1 or higher and you can bet there would've been a bigger spread!

I have JDM side mirrors so the glass is a little bit smaller (to make room for the LED indicators). I also have it folded (notice my steering wheel) since I want installing the glass so that's why it might also look tiny.

Yea. I was able to get the LED indicators and the power fold working. I heard that some JDM mirrors have the option of having heated glass, but I guess that wouldn't really matter for me now since I have the Spoon glass over it.

One negative thing though (which is why I bought the Spoon side mirrors), is that the JDM side mirrors are for RHD Fits. Since most of us drive the LHD version, the view is a little different. Nothing big, but might be annoying for some. The Spoon mirrors, from what I saw, just expanded my vision so hopefully this evens things out.

I just hope to god the epoxy holds and they don't fall off on the highway...
