So you are saying you run your tank dry on 87 octane gas M-F, then fill up with 91 octane for the weekend...run it dry, and then fill it again with 87 for the work week? Sounds like a PITA to me. Seriously, it costs like $6 more to put 93 in your tank. Plus your truck will run better, get better gas mileage, motor will run smoother, etc. Switching back and forth is too much trouble. Get a 93 octane custom tune and be done with it!

I only switched tunes for a review now its back to 91/93 octane for me.So you are saying you run your tank dry on 87 octane gas M-F, then fill up with 91 octane for the weekend...run it dry, and then fill it again with 87 for the work week?

You would be surprised that here in rural america, my local gas station doesn't even have premium, just 87 & 89. One of the only downsides of living in the country. Its not that hard to plan ahead, I just try to make sure I've got 1/4 tank before heading to the track and the station near the track has 93.So you are saying you run your tank dry on 87 octane gas M-F, then fill up with 91 octane for the weekend...run it dry, and then fill it again with 87 for the work week?

Also remember reaction time has nothing to do with E.T. so unless you are a freak about cutting good lights, like some of us, than its really not a big deal.
When your bracket racing, reaction time is everything. My truck is very consistent, but my reaction time is usually where I get beat.
