This intrigued me a lil. In accessport manager I read the notes. It reads like a predetermined map and a tune for 91 when I'm running 93? Hmmm thoughts? I could be wrong just what I'm seeing.

As far as I'm concerned, I bought the V3 solely as a storage device for multiple 'canned'/flash tunes, or for fully mapped extensive/advanced tunes (and maybe for the virtual dyno feature as well).

I will not even load any of the Cobb included tunes in my car.

91 is the octane minimum; see stock tune (87 minimum, best performance on 93). Was this a custom tune? Could be a safety net, or a typo.

Its a pro tune.

If you bought an Access Port from COBB (or anywhere besides from a pro-tuner that "tampered" with it)
Included should be:

Anti-Theft Mode
Stage 1 - 91 octane
Stage 1 - 93 octane
Stage 2 - 91 octane
Stage 2 - 93 octane
Stage 3 - 91 octane
Stage 3 - 93 octane
Valet Mode

If you bought your Access Port from a pro-tuner, good chance that the tuner included his own tune in there.

COBB tunes are safe to run, although quite conservative. Pro Tuner map would be the way to go.
