If anyone is tuned I suggest logging to make sure you aren't knocking bad when you get into boost with the latest batches of 91 floating around.
Damn its that serious?! I'm still running on a tank fronm last week so I don't want to have knock issues if I fill up

Knocking under any boost is kinda bad but its especially dangerous during high rpm and max boost target. Just be cautious if you've filled up with 91 lately. I logged after I added about 3 gallons of 100 and my knock is gone at WOT so I'm relieved for now.

My bike is getting more usage out of me this past week, haha.

And for those who care, Governor allowed winter blend to be sold now (instead of Nov. 1) so they're making the switch early this year

i didn't feel a difference either but i'm very paranoid about fuel. U should log some just to see how your car is doing.

yea only at WOT, not at normal driving levels only when in boost. And also since im using the cobb stage 2 map im not hitting target boost either for some reason but i think that is another issue entirely. Gotta take the time to test for leaks.
