Also, while I am waiting for my custom tunes, what would give me better mpg, running 91 octane with stock intake or running level 2 with my Volant CAI? Just curious if anyone has tried it. I will eventually try them both but since I just received the gryphon today and I will be driving to see my folks this weekend (900 mile round trip). I was wondering which one would give me the best mpg since I won't have time to test them both out before the trip.
A. If its 91 or 93 its not a big deal. But if its 87 and at level 3 might get some pinging.

B. If you already have a cai you should stick to level 2 canned the tow program, it runs richer and you won't be running lean. That would happen on level 3 canned.

C. You could try it on level 2 canned out there and level 0 stock on the way back or vice-versa.

D. Even at stock the cai causes a lean condition to exist. But level 3 leans it out more.

E. As for milage? It all depends on your driving style and where you are at.
