Regardless of the minor knock I'm having the car is running well, it doesn't drive like crap as others have stated. As you can see Stillen is getting very close in wrapping up their tuning issues cuz their tunes are getting better one after another. I have no complaints on Stillen's customer services whatsoever. I'm able to reach someone anytime of the day or night. Giving them an A+ in my part and thanks to Josh@Stillen for hooking me up with the AP Racing BBK. Them bad boys brakes very good!

They should account for the octane you will see in CA, which should be perfectly easy since they are located in the heart of CA to begin with and deal with our 91 octane gas every day. It should not detonate or knock regardless of the fuel you fill it with, granted you should fill it with the highest octane available to you in my opinion.
