thats 44rwhp, which is easily 50 crank hp and thats going 95-100 not even 91-100.
I would argue that you are getting the gain from the tune, not the octane. Did you follow the link and read it? If you get a gain it is not the octane level. Read. Increased octane level adds zero hydrocarbons to the fuel mixture= no added power.
