Talking 87 custom tune Vs. 93 custom tune

I finally filled up the tank with 93 octane and tried out the 93 Brenspeed custom tune. I can definitely feel a noticeable power difference between the 87 custom tune vs. 93 custom tune! The throttle response is a bit stronger and I can spin the tires easier. I only felt a minimal difference between the 87 custom tune vs. 89 custom tune. I would have to say the 5-7 HP increase between the 87 vs. 93, sounds about right! =-)

A while back I went back to the 87 tune to save some money. I had it on there about a month. However, I found myself getting really bored with my car and even started test driving some competitors. When I loaded the 93 tune again, I just couldn't believe the difference! It felt like I actually was driving a sports car again. ...Now I've just go gotta them new gears

I'm talking about this with MV Performance now. I'm leaning toward the 3.73s because I do a lot of highway driving.
