Default I have a full tank of 89 with an APR chip and 300 miles to go.

My college filled her up and got 89. I should have done it myself. Should I switch to the stock like program?

It looks like I'm switching to the "stock" program... The trip home will be no fun.

Default where are located and is it the 91 or 93 program for the 01?

you need to switch back ASAP if you have the APR CH 93 program since I'm pretty sure you will be pinging if you hit boost. If it not to much trouble you can pick up some toulene and a screened funel.

Default I think I have the 93 program... It's been a while sice I checked. I'll change ASAP.

I'm in Ann Arbor on a business trip. Toulene is not an option. No time.
