What does the 87 octane tune do? And how would it differ from the stock programming?
Re: Canned Tunes
fueling, throttle, fans, knock retard, torque, torque management, etc. etc. settings tweaked...

Re: Canned Tunes
Is the Diablo tune made for a specific octane rating? And would it hurt to run a lower octane? As far as i know, the knock retard is kind of a safety net, but would the Diablo tune have shut it off?
Re: Canned Tunes
Diablo tune is 91 or better if theres no 91 tune, or 93 or better if there is a 91 tune. Yes it would hurt to run a lower octane. KR can only do so much. Once you have more knock then the computer can pull timing, then you have a very real chance of burning and chipping pistons and blowing shit up.
