Default Best way to drive when running BG44k in the gas?
I would assume beat on the car, WOT and full boost as much as possible not?

Default I put it in before a highway trip...
Gas mileage was HORRIBLE of course. So, if you beat on it....you should see that tank drain pretty quickly :-)

Default I'd be careful w/ beating on it. A few Stg III folks have said their cars tended to
ping when it was running on the BG ..

I guess I could always turn the boost down to 8 psi and beat on it.

followed by an oil change.

If I get a tank of bad gas, will the car respond by lowering the boost level?
