General 91+ Tune Questions
Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2022 4:27 pm
Hey KTuner,
First off, awesome product. Ran into a few hiccups with drivers initially, but once I sorted that out, the software is highly functional and the reflash process was dead simple. A few questions about I haven't been able to locate answers to elsewhere:
- My vehicle ('16 Sedan V6) is bone stock apart from the tune. Is the 91+ tune recommended for my vehicle even without the standard bolt-ons (i.e., intake, PCDs, J-pipe, and exhaust) or will I incur efficiency losses? My understanding is this tune is robust enough to handle a FBO setup, but can also be used on stock vehicles.
- Will the 91+ tune advance timing even further when 93 octane is used, or is the same power output be expected for both 91 and 93?
- What kind of data have you been seeing on how fuel economy is effected from the 91+ tune? I would expect it to stay the same or increase a bit by virtue of a higher octane rating (less 1-2 mpg from the VCM disable), but after trying the 91+ tune, my mileage has been pretty bad, especially as the car warms up.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for everything you do!
