That should raise your octane a little ^_^

Turbo XS /Nathan will be coming to DYNO INC to get us certified and to become authorized dealers. Our own STI uses UTEC and in one hour of tunning on a conservative tune we extracted a good 60-70hp. So come talk to us in a couple weeks and get some tunning. Or if you want Nathan to do some tunning he will be available on a limited basis.
