I am currently using my 2nd tune on my SCT tuner and would like to try the 3rd program. Has anyone used octane booster that is reliable and what brand.
 
not advisable..lotsa threads on here about it..search and ye shall find..
 
Mine doesn't knock,Ping or detonate and I may have a bad tune stinker
what kind of tunes does your guy do....can or do I have to send the sct to him since it was from another tuner or can I load one from the computer.....How much are the tunes

if it dont knock or ping, how do ya know its bad?:D

but no, we can email you a tune and the program to download it to your sct direct.
but depends one tune I think is around $110 two or three tunes I think are $160
 
Ok, I have read the threads dont use octane booster. Because my altitude is 2200 and my next tune is for 93 octane and I can buy 92 anywhere here. Think it would be safe to try the 93 tune on 92 octane.

honestly you will gain minimal to insignificant power if any. i would advise against it. These motors dont like any amount of detonation, would hate to see ya hurt it over this. there are guys who have run around with a 100oct tune on race gas and said they felt nothing. but it sure feels good to fill it up with the good stuff.

My truck pinged at WOT after my tune. I add a half gallon of 110 octane racing fuel to every tank full and now no pinging. I don't drive mine everyday so it's not a problem and I love the smell.

I have a 93 tune & 100 octane tune...big, big difference....first time I used the 100 at the track I hit the rev limiter because I was shocked by the accel and forgot to shift..:eek:
