Other than a new PCM (which is what I'm assuming you mean by computer), I'm not sure of a way.

Yeah that what i mean.
I want the speed limiter gone w/o having to pump 91 octane gas. Becasue the PCm raises the rpm shift from 5800 to 6100 or something like that. I jsut cant do the gas. Anyone know of anything out there that pulls the top speed limiter off?

You would have to know someone with a programer that can raise the limiter for you. Otherwise new PCM.

the difference in price here is only 10 cents different a gallon...so its $3.12 for 87, $3.22 for 91, and $3.32 for 93...the difference when filling my tank is only $3.00 between 87 and 93, so id rather pay the money...and i go through 2 tanks a week....

Premium is only about $3.00 per tank more than regular.
It's more affordable than you think.

Power tuner is the only way to raise the limiter (you can't get rid of it, you can only raise it).

What are the price differences?

I do quite a bit of travelling across the states cheap places expensive places and in between. 99.9% of all the prices I've seen premium is 20-23 cents per gallon more then regular which works out to about $3 more per tank. Remember from E your only going to put in about 14.5 gallons.

So 14.5 x .20= $2.90 more per "Full" tank.

Herc just did a write up about this to I think Acefighter about putting in 93 because in the long run if you use something less, then you will actually be paying more! Do a search, it has been a recent topic.
