the 87 tune is fairly good when using 87 octane, you will see a definite increase in power, shift points is really worth it also.

The Tow Tune require 91 Octane or higher if I remember right

I guess that's why my tow tune goes so well with 87 octane then, eh?

I cant run less than 91 anyway, so thats what I stick with...

I still havent had time to get my cams in, so if anyone is in the northern MI area and feels like lending a guy a hand for a few hours, hit me up on aim.

I am thinking about selling my tuner and going for an SCT tune to help the cams out... the only problem is, SCT doesnt tune shift points, so I would have to keep the tune loaded and sell it locked... yuk.
