Yes and 94 will keep it safer. So your going FI on your stock motor hoping for 460+?! Wow, I thought I was brave with 442! Good luck and can't wait to see the numbers.

I'll be getting my car very soon from GRD in Chicago. They've done a fantastic job so far and I thought I'd pass along the numbers on my APS TT. Tuan tuned it on a 93 octane map with 9lbs of boost. I'm sure some will say "your motor is toast!" but Tuan has been running his 350Z at 500whp for more than 11,000 miles on stock internals with no problems. After talking to him at length, I feel confident in his belief that my stock motor will be fine with these numbers. Especially since I can get 94 octane in Ohio. If not, I'll just build for more hp!
For a comparison, the baseline stock numbers are from Tuan's Z before any of his current mods.

Do you have test-pieps and a really free-flowing exhaust I gather?

Thanks Gurgen. Believe it or not,you were a influence on my decision to go TT. I've read much of what you and others have posted on how important tune is to reliability of FI and felt it was a small calculated risk to go for the additional power of TT.
Yes, I'm running APS test pipes, APS Plenum and Nismo Exhaust. Tuan/GRD really likes my Nismo and said it sounds better than his aftermarket on his 500whp Z. He said it flows very well.
