ECU tune Stage 1
Please let me know if the Stage 1 chip Motersport Warehouse sent me will change my SVX to 87 octane usage? I can't get my PC to connect with ECUtune for this info...???
THANKS!

It will support both 87 and 91 provided you wire in a switch to alternate between the 2.

You should be fine. LAN's chip alters the ECU map to allow you to use 87 without running into spark knock. -Bill
