She drove really nice. Power was present anywhere you hit it. You be the judge when you pick her up lol

You would be equally as screwed in MAF or Hybrid. The Low Octane and High Octane tables function just the same, as it primarily uses the High Octane table and will knock down to the Low Octane if a lack of octane or other issue is present that causes the car to knock.
You will not have issues with it.
You will not. Perhaps driving to Denver, but the baro calculation should handle all the goofiness.

Your tuner will know for sure.....
When I say "screwed", that ASSUMES the High octane table will be ignored and your tuner will need to use the Low octane table, ONLY. If you get some crap fuel, there will be no "Low" octane table to reference, so spark will be whatever it is set to. So, there will be a good chance that the retard table will not be enough to keep detonation from occurring. NOT a good place to be. But again, I am not sure if the E38 does this or not.

Not sure if you are talking about the other time when you were confused thinking Mordeth was insulting you when in fact he was complimenting you?
Either way, thanks for all the help. I certainly appreciate it.

Well I can tell you it's a huge difference...I can actually cruise the car, chugging along in 6th gear at low rpms no problem.
And the car is just so powerful and quick. No it doesn't have the same super pull at the very top end but it's power delivery is more beefy and more linear. It just accelerates so damn effortlessly.
My car is also a little bit lighter with the featherlite coilovers and corbeau seats, and it's impressive how fast it can accelerate at lower rpms and partial throttle.
One thing is I definitely hear the "sewing machine" now and at certain lower rpms while cruising it has this strange surge like a car that is idling inconsistently like ruuum, ruuum, ruuum. instead of a steady purr, but only at this one rpm, it's strange. Might be totally normal or me being overly critical not sure.
But overall I was very happy with it. Got stuck in HEAVY Belt parkway traffic, and then again on the Southern state Pkwy...I'm talking hours of tedious stop and go...my knees were starting to really hurt and I was like please God make open up this traffic, lol. But the car was fine the whole time with the AC going & music playing in hot/humid conditions.
Definitely love the car and how it runs now, and after that huge test on the way home, I am confident I can deal with commuting traffic no problem. Also confident that the car is really F-ing fast too!
And I know everyone has their own idea of what "fast" is...No, the car is obviously not 9's fast...but I would think definitely high 10's, which in my book is still a really fast street car.
Had some disappointments with CSP, but they also did a lot of things right. Overall I was happy with them in the end.
