Your 98 is actually very similar to our 93, hence the 93 tune will work well for you.

Thanks

It's based on a different unit for octane.. it's not comparable to what 98/102 would be in the statues. RON vs. MON vs (R+M)/2 (AKI)

I have a question about the 93 tune. What happens if the gas you buy isn't truly 93 or you need gas on a trip and all you can find is 91?

Best bet there is to switch to the 91 tune.

Thanks

If he is on a trip and he has no idea that he can't purchase 93 ....91 will run fine

Guys, I installed the Diablo tune on my stock 2011 c6. It gave a warning to upgrade the exhaust. Will it hurt the engine to run the tune until I can purchase the headers and exhaust next year?

I've never seen such a message unless loading a hot tune in a Diesel, there is no need to upgrade the exhaust of any other mods to run our tunes.

Thanks
