BMS Powerbox

Takeshi · 05-15-2012, 06:26 PM

I have the BMS tune on my car along with an intake and a full exhaust. Does anyone know if I can get greater gains with 94 octane fuel? I think I read in one of the posts that using race fuel actually cancels out the the effect of the BMS tune. But I wasn't able to find anything definite on 94 octane.

car will run better, but you wont "feel" any difference.

sort of off topic but how would 89 run or 91 at the bare minimal?

Don't run 89 on your car regardless of tune.

I have the AA tune, will I feel a difference in power with 94 octane opposed to using 91 octane
