In my neck of the woods we only have 91 octane for premium. Can I still use the 93 tune or would I need to add octane boost?

Thank you,
You would need a 91 Oct tune... And if you live in Arizona California or Nevada then you need a 91 oct tune specific since the refineries dilute the 91 for those three states...

I read what kpwweb said about it throwing codes. No problems for me with the DS Diablew tune in my 2015. Now in my 2008 the headers caused issues with O2 sensor codes but the tuning software fixed that and the dyno work was done with a wideband O2 sensor. Other than that if it thru a code there was a real problem unrelated to the tune. I'd be curious to see what other have noticed. The DS tuning dollar for dollar is great and as Yukon John said no issues with the dealer when returning it to stock for service.

Just some fyi, the headers would cool much more quickly than the stock manifolds and in cool / cold weather it would throw codes, once it would warm up a bit, gone. All that was done was to adjust the threshold for the code to allow for the cooling. So I had a summer and a winter tune. That cold air sure is nice to tuned motors... and turbo's. I know for sure I pissed off more than one neighborhood enjoying some early morning (shift change at the local PD) cold air WOT pulls in my cars... Sorry officer's on here.. had to be done..

After 4500 miles with the tune I have had no issues with codes or anything else.

I took it into my selling dealer yesterday for it's first oil change and tire rotation at 5454 miles. I have a good relationship with the dealer and was able to go into the service bay and talk to the tech working on my truck. He was a cool younger guy so I told him about the tune and asked if he could tell if there was any evidence of the aftermarket tune ( I restored to OEM before taking it in), He hooked up to his equipment and ran a diagnostic...all is as it should be with no trace of the factory tune being altered. He did recommend that I return it to OEM anytime I bring it in...sometimes the techs will get a flash update from the factory to run on all vehicles in a VIN sequence for improvements.

I will say this...I returned the tune to OEM in my garage before I took it in...my dealer is about 15 miles from my home and in that drive I was AMAZED how much difference there is between my tune and the OEM set up !! Seriously...the difference in feel, power and response is HUGE. I actually felt like I was driving a different truck !! I took the tuner with me and after I left the dealer I stopped in an un crowded parking lot and re installed my tune...BIG SMILE AGAIN !!

Good to know that no traces were left behind on the tune! I was curious if I was going to need to revert back to the OEM stock tune for a simple service visit like an oil change and tire rotation, and it sounds like it would be a good idea to do so.

Fuel consumption goes down at first, mainly because you put your foot into in more. Once your over that you might notice a slight improvement. YMMV, no pun intended.

Lol OK

Might have to get one then, thanks!

Gus...don't know what part of town you're in but I dealt with Speed and Truck World on Sunrise in Ft. Lauderdale. Serious speed shop for trucks, off road and SUV's. They updated mine with the latest down loads from Diablo and installed there at their shop.

I know who they are, I've dealt with them before when I had my shop, definitely will look to see the pricing.

I'm in Miramar btw
