So, that's what the car learned. Pulling the fuses allows the computer to re-learn.

I just finished looking at the scan of the run and noticed that I hit 8lbs of boost for the first time. Never seen over 7 pounds before.
Maybe I could do this to check mine out. I ran full tank of 87 through it last month by mistake and with 5K miles on. Didn't think it was a problem, but I did plan to pull fuses anyway. Just hadn't gotten around to it. Now I'm glad I didn't.

Just want a sure fire way to tell the difference besides butt dyno and I'm not going to run another tank of 87 to test again.
