Default Power Pack 2 Octane

Quick question,
I was a dummy and didnt pay attention and filled my take up with 87 octane instead of 91+. Anything i need to do when i fill up with the right gas? anything to be worried about?

Are you running a tune or the stock tune? If the stock tune then it is designed to run on 87 so no issue.

If you are running a custom tune, can you put it back to stock, or have you added anything like a CAI that requires a tune?

All modern engines have a knock sensor that will pull timing if you approach pre-det. Just take it easy until you fill up again.
