Default Why did I wait so long?

I just installed my new Steeda and brenspeed tune. WOW!!! It feels like a new car. I cant wait to try the 91 tune. My dumbass forgot to start buying 91 while waiting on the tunes, so I only have the 87 installed right now. I only drove for about 30 minutes to see if any cel's came on or any other problems, nothing!!

The only "problem" to speak of, it is raining here, and while I was playing on a lonely road, the *** end kept trying to come around on me in 3rd gear!!! I love that thing!

My 87 octane Brenspeed tune is solid, but I noticed some rattling under acceleration with the 91/93 tunes. Not sure if it was just a freak exhaust rattle or what. Is there any way I can see if there's a knock sensor or something and actually verify it was knock?

How much difference is there between the two? Right now the Perma-grin is going strong, thinking maybe I would have been happy with the just the 87. So I am hoping the 91 will make another big difference.

Not sure if it's just me but the 91/93 tune adds a ton of top end. After 4,500 rpm it seems to pull much harder.

Brenspeed? Got some dynos for us?

It's not a huge difference like stock to 87, but it's noticeable.
