I think he wanted to say 89 octaine.

Man I just checked out the price from Nelson for his tune. He is a little high is he not? He is just about even with Wester now.

i had a 87 octane tune from allen,i lost about 1mpg and the performance gain was unimpressive.tryed three different tunes with basically the same results.
allen is a total class act.if i had some harcore mods[blower,cams,etc.i would try him again.
maybe a 93 octane tune would have better results.
