I bought my CAI and XCAL2. I am running the 87 tune, do you guys recommend the 89 tune instead. Is it much of a difference??

I used the 87 tune once or twice.. didn't really notice the difference when upping to 89. Now 87 to 91, there's definitely an added kick in the ***.

I have both the 87 tune, and the 89 tune from Alternative Auto. I am running the 89 tune right now and don't notice a difference performance. I am not much of a human dynometer but there has been a slight gain in gas mileage.

You just have the sensor in the wrong place, it's not a bolt on it's a suppository.
