    he he i hear yah. but really i think it's because the mark d is optimized for 93 octane like i said.

      Gotcha. I'm wondering who would be a reliable source for the information? Do you think MarkD would be honest about it if I asked him?

                You can get 92 in Oregon.

                  Where? Maybe I'm just not paying attention. I usually look for a 76 to fill up.

                    If I can find a MarkD chip, I'll be sure and let you know.

                      Guys, there is a 91 octane MarkD chip, I ran it for a very long time (then he made the 93 version for me...wheeee!).

                      We'll have dyno plots of it on a relatively stock motor soon, promise.

                      And Mark is a standup guy, no shadyness at all. E-mail him, he'll get back to you pretty quickly.

                        Mark is 100% on the level. I have his 91 chip & it rocks!!! (in conjunction with 19lb injectors and a K&N cone semi cai)

                          Wow 19lbs. is pretty heavy. How's your fuel mileage?

                            It was eighteen mpg and now is about twenty because (I think) the injectors are running at a much lower % of their cycle and also the four pintles are making a more efficent mixture.
