Default Chipped CA Turbo Audi Owners and 91 Octane.

I just filled up with my first tank of 91. I'm running APR v3 software on my 1.8t.

I'm curious if any of you are having problems with pinging, etc. I know APR says they tune for 91 octane, but there are other factors that come into play like IC heat soak, etc.

Just curious how you are all doing with the newly blended CA crap gas.
