if i want to use 93 tune i will have to use extra premium gas, which costs 1.9 euros per litr here. Its extremely expensive for everyday. Now i use 91 performance with premium gas which costs 1.65 euros per litre. But i will give it a try for one full tank, thank you.

Didn't notice you were in Europe, makes sense then! 93 is about 30 cents a gallon higher here, not sure how that converts Best of luck, glad you like the tuner tho!

1.9 EUR = $2.56 US
1.65 EUR = $2.22 US

(exchange rate for today)

Also, fuel is sold per liter, and not per gallon. 1 gallon = 3.78 liters.

Doing the conversion, fuel over there costs approximately $8.39/gallon for 91 octane, and $9.68/gallon for 93 octane.

The US normally has cheap fuel compared to other countries!

Yeah and the government wants to charge us the rates similar to Europe! Everyone would be in poverty! I don't know how they do it over there....

I just got back from a 600 mile trip with the 91 tune installed. I really liked the feel of it and got better gas mileage than with the 87 tune before (19.2 by the computer / 18 by my math).
My question is, has anyone had any luck running the 91 tune with 89 octane? I've only found 2 stations here that carry 91 (and rarely on the road) and i don't think its worth the extra $$ for the 93 octane. I've thought about trying using 89 with octane booster but I don't really think thats the way to go.
Thanks
