Default Octane booster and a custom tune

is there any problems to using 104 octane booster is your gas if you're running a custom tune? i have the 93 octane bamachips race tune and just wanted to make sure this wouldn't mess anything up. thanks

Octane boosters (and just about any additive) are known to cause problems in our engines.
