Tuning question

[RTRMustangGT]

During school months i have to drive back and forth to school every week(about 50 miles). I want to get a preditor tuner for my car but if i do any king of tuning then i need to switch to 93 octane gas right? well, if i was to get the tuner and put the custom tune in during the summer with the 93 octane gas and then put the stock tune back in when driving back and forth to school with 87 octane, would that do any damage to the engine when i switch to and from the higher octane gas? thans for the help guys.

NO! You should be fine. Just make sure that when the Pred tune is installed that you have the high octane running. Or, have added some octane boost. And, listen for knock or pinging. I gyou get any, then put the stock tune back on.

You won't hurt anything. But IMO i don't think you should spend your money in that. Look into other things you can get for your car besides that.

What about just getting a switch chip instead. I think you get like 3 programs on one chip so you could have stock, 87 octane tune, and 93 octane tune. Just a thought since the mail order chips are just as much as the predator chips.

i like the switch chip idea. what companys make good chips like this. i haven't really seen any one who makes them. i have heard a lot about them but don't really know who makes them.
