i was wondering if any of you happy go lucky tuners out there such as mm could provide a tune for the utilization of 87 octane in a way the engine will not be damaged at all. im sure timing would have to be changed... just wondering.

I have a int-x tuned for 87 octane and made 20rwhp

dyno or it didnt happen.

also, isnt the int-x supposed to give you 20whp as it is, without any tuning for 87.

well i've run 15.4 afr with 93 octane and it didn't ping... also in my canzoomer tuning days I ran 12.8-130 range regularly year round with 89 octane

Well recently after dynoing my car with the int-x my motor went. The int-x did not casue the engine failure scott tuned it safe. I think i have had the hardest rx8 for scott to tune, my car did not want to comply. After all tuning i was able to get 20 more rwhp though out the rpm range. It was a totally different car.

Here out in long island there is a huge difference between super and regular ... honestly id rather use regular ... but i fear detonation. so i guess it can be done.


can this be dine just by adjusting the map signal or is more needed?

I switched to 89 lately.

it feels the same. and I can save a buck something each fillup, after 30 fillups I can buy another tank of gas without doing anything so why now !?

I cant do 87, cuz the engine bog down when I push it. so 89 that is. or maybe back to 93 when summer comes, will see.
