I would not run Level 3 with the CAI. Use Level 2 only, until you get your custom tunes, or, take the CAI off.
Elevation reduces the tendency of fuel to preignite (ping), so you are effectively using 87 octane gas. I'm going to guess that you are in the 5-6000 ft elevation range? I've driven all over Colorado using their 85 octane gas and not had any problems.
I've read quite a bit about octane boosters and what I've read tells me you would have to put a lot of the stuff in a truck to get any real octane boost. A bike has a much smaller tank, so they may work better there, but I'd stay away from them in cars or trucks.
If you really want to run a high octane performance tune, make sure the tank is filled with high octane gas.
