Any ECUflash tuners Have 91 octane experience?

It appears to me that all the tuners in here are on the OTHER side of the country where 91 is considered the cheap stuff . Knowing that makes me wonder how many tuners have any experience with that octane level and can send a propper map for it.


thank you.

I have a lot of experience with 91 octane, let me know if you are willing to travel to Northern California for tuning.

I got a couple questions.

What kinda of dyno do you tune on? (probably mustang from the look of your sig)

How much for a custom tune?? Also, in addition to a custom 91oct map, I would like a 100oct map? So how much for those two maps??

Just for ***** and giggle, can you tell the numbers (before&after) from the last IX you tuned with my mods (TBE, FP).

BTW, I have heard of your great work on Norcalevo.net.

I tune on a awd mustang dyno located in San Jose.

My custom tune is $550 for the EVO9. For a 91 octane map. A 100 octane map will depend on how many psi you got an how much longer it takes after the 91 octane tune.

The last EVO 9 I tuned was my own a few days ago.

Baseline was 218 wtq 235 whp

Stage 0 (mbc, drop in filter, tune) 299 wtq 272 whp

Stage 1 (mbc, drop in filter, TBE, tune) 299 wtq 292 whp *need to tweek my car more, as with this tune I was experiementing with a different combination. usually my stage 1 EVO 9's run 310 wtq 300 whp.*

Thanks for the vote of confidence Bryan!

If you have the ability to drive to Speed Element I HIGHLY recommend Andy! I wasted my time with 2 different email flashes which both resulted poorly and then finally took the car to Andy to tune properly on a dyno and the results were crazy different. My car is bone stock except for a drop-in and hallman mbc and Andy got me 270.4awhp and 290.8awtq on the same mustang dyno with a pretty conservative tune and I am VERY happy with the results:
