more power with cobb

Hi,

I got cobb and i am dissapointed that i cant run the sport map due to crappy 91 octane here in Arizona, so i flashed my car with drive map (Cobb suggested to use this map), i can feel a slight difference, nothing to brag about though. So fmic and downpipes is a good addition to run stage 2 -drive map to really feel a big jump in power? maybe meth kit to really up the power? Please share your thoughts, ideas.

Thank you

With meth you should be able to run aggressive no problem. Or if e85 is available you can experiment around with different mixtures and datalog to see what map you can run.

Bolt-ons and stage 2 would be nice bump.

One you put meth, you can go to their most aggressive tune (a failsafe would be recommended because of the hot weather and crappy gas).

You can also install a FMIC and flash to Stage 1+ Drive. It feels similar to stage 1 aggressive.

i thought 91 octane = sport map, and 93 octane = aggresive?

Cobb said to run stage 1 drive as 91 octane here in Arizona, Nevada and California is crap, supposedly its lower than 91 which i don't know how this could be legal as they advertise it as 91.
