buying used doesnt mean anything. Regardless the fuse pull fixes this problem. Only time youll need to pull the fuse again is if you accidently put 87 in it again. Putting in 87 doesnt ruin the car for life in any sense

My dealer put 87 for the first tank, it's had nothing but premium in it since then. I did the fuse pull on my '12 SS and didn't notice anything at all.

Did you happen to do a 0-60 time before and after?

I didn't notice anything, either... I have to believe they resolved that issue by now.

If you pull them, you will immediately feel the difference.....if you don't, don't worry about it....it's just a myth anyway.
