93 octane pumps in southern Maine

Anyone know of any, or is it a statewide ban on 93 octane or something? I was up here last year and pumps had 93, now all I see is 91.

Not to sure... seens how my lancer juust uses Reg. Pm AK47po on these boards. He has an evo up around the augusta area and may be able to help with this one. Most places here though do not carry 93. I have a friend that had a gt35r 13b in his rx7 and he had trouble finding 93 sometimes.

you got my respect. i'm the same way
FYI, tuning is a lot easier than you think. Especiallly with the AEM. I know your sig says you got some dude Sean Ivey to tune. You should try it yourself.

Eh.
I don't care.

Once you learn how to tune you'll realize you'd be doing the same exact thing as he is...only other clueless people have built him up to be some sort of diety. It's not like he's going to be doing something amazing that you wouldn't be able to do yourself. Tuning is basically a spreadsheet with numbers. If he enters a 4 in a field it's no better than you entering a 4 in the same field.

In my experience most "tuners" i've seen really aren't very good tuners. People just think they are because everyone else says so. (i'm not saying he isn't)

What EMS are you running on the 240 and eclipse?
