For those that it did not make a difference, your car was already using the high octane tables.

I did the fuse pull over a month ago and it did make a difference in smoothness of the engine through the RPM's and took away the "herky-jerky" feeling.

Why not? What could it hurt?

Worst case your car starts running like a beast.

Actually, if you read that 20 page sticky, there's at least one user that had his performance severely deteriorate after the fuse pull. So, it doesn't seem entirely risk free.

I looked at my fuse panel on my LS3 I picked up a couple weeks ago and the fuse panel is very different than the sticky picture. Any idea which one(s) to pul on a LS3? I'm assuming the picture was of a L99. Thx

I know that when my car was delivered to the dealership it only had 6 miles on it. I personally drove it across the street with the dealers credit card and filled it up with 93 octane. I thought my car was fast as well but did the fuse pull anyway. Well I can definitely tell the difference! It's worth the try.
