Do you want to hear something funny my friend owns a Chevy Tahoe and it pings sometimes and that' without a tune or CAI. We have bad gas here. I have used XR-1 octane boosters before and laugh but I use the XR-1 fuel cleaners too. That's in the event I get too much carbon built up. I have already had to have my throttle body and the fuel system cleaned because of a irregular idle. Believe it or not I have 43 thousand miles on it and I have already replaced the battery too. Ha Ha hee-hee.

Run what you want, as long as you don't have any ping issues you should be fine. Its not harming your engine to run the 93 tune.

There is NO substitute for a good dyno tune. Every car is differeent some how & the only way to addres that properly is on a dyno w/ a good FI guy tuning it.

Can you explain what "irregular idle" is?

So I take it a 91 or 93 octane tune from Brenspeed isn't going to cut it...

When my car was sitting at traffic it wouldn't rev at a regular idle . It would rev high then drop low causing a check engine light code P0506. After the cleaning that was corrected . It runs fine now.
