I wonder if Dinan software will adapt timing if you put 100 octane into the tank?

I wonder how much room they left in their tuning for it to adapt and increase hp if someone bought a tank of 100 octane gas? I definitely plan on testing it.:biggrin:

it should adapt and perform better once it cycles the fuel adaptations.

Dinan flash loves the good stuff. Try some Sunoco 100 oct, it feels tremendous.

Even without a flash, the ECU will push a fair amount of timing. That's one thing it's very good at, dynamic timing control. I know people have picked up more than 20hp from adding some REAL gas, without chaning anything.
