Default B A M A tune

Hey guys I just ordered my JLT II/xcal packagefrom B A M A minutes ago.
I got the 93 (Race/Perf/Torq), and I know the differences between them.
I just started worrying about not getting a lower grade fuel tune, like getting 2 tunes for a 93 and one for the 87.
If you recommend doing that, which one of the 93's should I give up for the 87?

Maybe you should go with a tuner that doesn't have stupid names like "Torque", "Race", and "Performance"... You know they practically all mean the same damn thing...

I've been reading about the differences for a long time.

So, definitely there should be a difference.

I would say lose the "torque" one and get an 87 perf.

Personally I run the 93 race all the time with no problems.

I dont know about that I used to live out west and there were some country gas stations, ie only one for next 100 miles that only had 87.

Chances are slim but you never know.

Also after all the hurricanes here in FL a couple years ago there was a while when you would have to take whatever gas was available. I keep the tuner in my car in case something like that happens so I dont hurt my motor.

An 87 Torque tune is not available for your car. Suggest that you keep the 93 Race, and swap either the 93 Torque or 93 Performance for an 87 Performance.

Thanks for the help guys, I guess I'll just stick with my 93's.
If I had any problems l8r, I'll just order a single tune from doug or ask him if he could swap one of mines with an 87.
