I don't know that, I gave that code to my tuner.

I have money so no worries there. I was sick of putting the "required premium" in my Trans Am for 20 years just to go back and forth to work. Even $6.30 per week doesn't sound too bad but I hate to pay it. What I do not understand is why 93 is now 45 cents more per gallon than regular. It was 20 cents up until a few years ago. I guess that octane is part gold?

I could go around, even if I run my car bone dry I still thing running a 93 tune would be worth it.
