mixing 111 leaded gas with 91 unleaded gas

Get the car tuned with what you plan on running all the time. No since in getting it tunedwith the "good" gas when you will most likely be driving around with 91 (or whatever you can get, LV is 91 max thanks to tree huggin Cali) in the tank.

using a higher octane gas will cost you HP... not gain you any... just use what you normally run

even with it tuned on 91? or does the octain not make a difference on the tune?

i say run the 111 for your dyno pull

if your tuned for 91 octane... you will make less power running 111
