Don't worry about it. I did the same thing when I first got tuned. I swear some think they were born with the tuning expertise. Some of us noobs to tuning turbo cars have every right to have these questions. I know I bugged my tuner a few times with questions.

You're fine. Jon Drenas aka BakaUnchi at 5150 Racing knows his ****!!!

Now, if you were BTack tuned, then your car would blow up. A BTack tune is capable of pushing 500whp on the stock turbo on pump....

Stop buying WAWA gas and get some proper 93 in your car. Hell even COSTCO has 93. I miss Ultra 94 we used to have here.

He's in NJ. We have 93 here. Only Wawa sells 92 octane here for some reason. 93 is readily available here and Wawa isn't always the cheapest.

when i first tuned mine i had similar mods originally & would spike at 27/28 but drop to around 24, ran it for about 6 months with no problems before overhauling turbo/ manifold and everything else. Now its on to sleeves!
