I purchased my SCT tuner when Mike was running a special last Christmas. Give him a call and see what he can do now.

was looking at the webiste. do you think there would be a big difference in power betweeen the 87 tow and the 91 tow. also with the performance one. also to switch between the 87 91 and 93 does your tank have to be almost empty to switch over or halfway. not sure how that works.

I believe so. Here is the list of features from the SCT website:

Mike was very helpful when I was selecting my custom tunes. Mike did state that there would not be a significant difference in tunes by just changing the octane rating. For example, it was not recommended having 87 octane towing, 89 octane towing, and 93 octane towing tunes. The "towing" aspect of the tune is common to all three tunes. I doubt too many people would opt for a 93 octane economy tune.

After thinking about it, I opted for the 87 octane economy, 89 octane towing, and 93 octane performance tunes. I felt like those gave me the greatest variety of tunes. Now, if I did a lot of towing, I may have opted for 87 octane economy, 89 octane performance, and 93 octane towing tunes.
