    I can't find his exact reply for this, but said that is where he engaged the dyno, or something along those lines..

    Ironically, the Taco was the first after many that required 91 or better. Never really bothered me except when it was like five bucks a gallon...

    Compression ratio on our engine is close to 12:1, 11.8:1 listed, using anything lower than 91 octane will kill power. Arizona/Phoenix temps are in the 110 range during the day during the summer, fresh air intake temps are high. The engine going to retard the S*** out of timing. That's why Mat said 93 octane would be better.

    Dealers/Manufactures say it's okay to use the lower octane fuel. Just a selling point without regard to power output.

    Buy a Cheapie laptop to do the install. If you're dropping 750 on a tune, the extra 50 to install it shouldn't be that big of a deal.

    Is the Dyno report showing the gains everyone is hoping for? I am running 285/70/17's plus winch bumper , full set of steal skid plates including aluminum fuel tank skid and sliders so i have added quite a bit of weight!! I was going to get the 4.88 gear change but that's like $2500 if the tune can improve the stock gearing enough can i skip the gear change or is the gear change the best option?Looking long term with the tune i may spend more money on it then the gear change with the cost of fuel and loss of more MPG's! Any thoughts?

    Honestly, if it costs an extra 10 bucks a tank, that's still 200 or so fill ups before breakeven. Even at my current 3k miles/month, that's a few years before the 4.88's would have been the same cost. IMO, I'd go tune if you're dailying, but the 4.88's are super tempting for actual crawling.
