I figured there are very, very limited number of parts and mods out there for these cars, so I might as well get what I can now. Nothing big, just a performance mod that can be easily undone and a sound mod that can also be undone while helping me to save the stock exhaust setup. And by sound mod I don't mean 'boom boom'.

Should I get 87 or 89 octane rating for a performance tune?

  • Street (87-93 octane) - the street tune is designed as a daily driver program that focuses in on increasing mid-range power. It does give up a few HP at higher RPMs, but that's why there is a Performance file. Automatic vehicles are further enhanced by making adjustments to the transmission's shift points and firmness.
  • Performance (87-93 octane) - The Performance program is designed to add power at 3000 RPMs and higher, focusing more on the top end horsepower and all out performance driving. Timing, fuel and throttle response settings are slightly more aggressive than the street tune. This is a great track tune but also works well for daily drivers that are looking for a little more "get up and go" than the street tune. The automatic transmission settings are the same as in the street tune.
  • Race (91 - 93 octane) - The race tune will ensure the largest increase in vehicle performance. Using the highest grade of fuel available in your area is mandatory. This file is designed for "Race only Use" as the timing, fuel, and throttle response settings are very aggressive. in fact, the adjustments are so aggressive, that we do not recommend it for daily driving as it may cause your vehicle to try to jump out from a stop and easily spin the tires. Finally, with the automatics, we implement entirely new shift points and firmness settings to further enhance the all-out performance of the vehicle.

The better hte octane, the better the timing increases can be therefore allowing for more power to be made. Honestly, if your gonna go, go all out, run premium, have teh tune made for it.

The station I usually go to has 87, 89, and 92. I think there's some around with 93, but not very many. I don't want to get stuck on the side of the road cause I couldn't find it anywhere.

I was thinking 87 for the street tune, 89 for performance, and 93 for race, which I doubt I'll be using much anyways.
