zippy Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 the LQ9 is recomended to run 91 octane or higher from the factory. tuning for 89 octane would just be a liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drive the truck to work in the morning and the bike when I go back after lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hot 93 tune is better but the dual tune does allow for 89 oct incase you cant get 93 for whatever reason. I use mine as a daily driver and the small loss is ok with me.

zippy Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 i always put the same type of capabilities into my programming so that you can run 87 octane if neccessary. the reason i do this though is because there may be times on a road trip when that's all that's available. the downside to this is from testing on 87 octane you also lose milage this defeats the whole purpose of saving money by running cheaper fuel. i have not tried this with 89 octane though.

quickmedic1 Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 my 89 portion of the tune does well on milage in the 15-1800 rpm range. I lost a small amount of performance with the 89-93 tune but nothing that really concerns me. The truck is still faster than most people give it credit for. It's not an animal just fun.
