Re: odd tuning ?
As soon as boost is mentioned go straight to the best fuel you can afford.
i have heard often of guys (NA) running the lowest octane to try and get a extra hp or 2 out of better combustion but i am skeptical of this too,
if you check data sheets of your fuel you will see the BTU value of the fuel your using, as far as i'm concerned this is the measure of how much hp the fuel is good for and 2 fuels of similar value will yeild similar hp
