    Is there a benefit to running 93 octane over 91?

    Not unless your car is pinging.

              I am curious to know if there is a difference in the 84 cars and the 85 cars. I was led to beleive that 85 cars had a removeable chip and 84 cars didnt and therefore you can chip 84 cars. Well not unless you upgraded to a later ECU. One more question is there any difference in the JC chips with turner selling them?

                Answers: Yes, the 84's had non-removable ecu chips - swap to a later style. And no, there is no difference between a Jim C chip and a TMS/Jim C chip AFAIK.
