[QUOTE="OPT PRIME, post: 1281826, member: 24166"] Started a back country hiking road trip on the 16th. FL-TN-IN-WY-UT-CA. I am pleased to say the Whipple Tune has been phenomenal in every way, all they way up to nearly 10,000’. I will say that at 10,000’ and at idle it takes a long time for the turbos to spool up to their limits and start working- to be expected. Only 91 octane is available west of IN and temperatures varied a bit, but full 20 psi of boost seems to be available to around 6,500 feet or so. The reason I can’t be more specific is that at higher altitudes the boost starts to drop sooner as the engine swallows all that air and the ECU algorithms limit the turbine speeds- higher turbine speeds are needed in the thinner air and more turbine speed is needed as RPM and volume increases. Nevertheless, the tune has been bomb proof. 3,200 miles in and burned 1/2 quart of oil. 15.0 mpg at 80 mph, 15.6 trip average with all the mixed driving. As a final note, her first leg ever off 93 octane was questionable as she back fired and stumbled a few times, maybe the hesitation some talk about. Furthermore she was not nearly as peppy until the ECU adjusted which took longer than expected. All seems to be fine now, I’m guessing I’m down 30HP 93 to 91.
