part#u7137 code241208. rev.9r04 I tried to install 87oct. tune. it says installation failed. I also changed some peramiters, and those did change. Whats up? I want to add all i can, but I can't add timing because of nitrous. What can I do?

Use the lookup.

For that kind of setup I wouldn't even consider anybody but AJ at Westbury Jeep, but he's not exactly close to you (Long Island).
And why the F*CK are you trying to run 87 octane on a built motor? Thats like pure stupidity. 10 Grand at least on a motor and you won't even feed it the good stuff???

LOL, maybe he is trying to run a low timing tune to protect the motor...

I tried the 87 oct. tune because of timing issues. I am using a progressive 250hp. nitrous kit I would like to run the 93 oct tune, but I can't add timing.Can I run the 93 oct. tune, and pull timing back out of it? If so how much should I back the timing down. I will have a custom tune made this winter after I put the comp. 273 cam in and mod man intake. No I am just trying to get all I can out of the preditor for racing at monster mopar next weekend. I would really appreciate any help you can give me!!!

Heres all the help you need: DO NOT RACE!! If you race on a canned tune you WILL blow the motor.
