Just thought of this, but DMS doesn’t allow different fuels to be used, just different time for each drive mode for daily driving or performance. You have to have another file loaded on to use an ethonal mix right?
Yes, that’s correct. Our fuels are only 10% around here and I don’t have the need for it so I’m not about to start mixing for higher content. The highest we have is 93 and you have to know where to go to get it. Most places only sell 91. I like being able to tune it down and then switch to Race when I want to mess around. My daughter just turned 16 so she’ll be getting her permit and I wouldn’t want her driving it when it’s in Race mode. There is a big difference in the drivability between Race, Performance, and Stock+. So, what works for me might not work for someone else. I’m used to using an SCT X4 with my truck and whenever I want to switch between tunes, I have to get the X4, return it to stock and then upload the tune I want. PITA! I love being able to switch to Race when I want to by just turning the dial. If I could get E30 or E50 I may have gone a different route, but we don’t. It all depends on what you want and what’s available to you.
