Default So after 5 1/2 years of ownership, I finally filled up with 100 octane.......
cost me $74 and I was extremely excited. My enthusiasm has worn off though because while I can notice *some* difference, I am not blown away with extra power. The acceleration is slightly better but not worth $74 it cost. I have driven 40 miles so I would imagine that the car has adjusted to it by now.
Was I expecting too much? Maybe it is time for the Mobile Tuner so I can get XR.

Log correction factor (020/021) and add timing accordingly.

I disagree... On both AMS and MTM, the difference 91 -> 100 is amazing (per the butt dyno)

Default On MTM
93 to 100 is a big difference, much smoother and more powerful!

I've seen good results with no tweaks going from 91 to 95

Default I am in NY so we have 93. Maybe I was just expecting too much. It is smoother....
I just thought it was going to be night and day......
