Superchips Tow tune: Best fuel to use?
I've been running the SC Tow tune for a year now and I like how it feels compared to stock. I've been running primarily 87 and sometimes 89 octane. Is there a recommended octane for the tow tune? I do get a little pinging after I shut it off, but nothing noticable while driving and no weird sounds or vibrations. Just wondering.

But... to answer your question on what octane to use with tow tune, I think it's recommended to use 87 or higher.

I've used either or 89 or 93 with the tow tune, no 91 available in my location. I didn't notice much difference in towing ability vs. the 87 octane tune, plus the tow tune seems to use more gas. I find turning O/D off is the best setting for towing.
