Default Question about level 2 on edge evolution?

Do i need to run 89 octane fuel to run level 2 on my edge evolution? Or will 87 be okay to use? Thanks

The manual states that level 2 is safe to run 87 and 89. Level 3 is strictly 93 and higher.

What about running 93 on level 3? I've heard that it will advance the timing too much. We only have 87, 89, and 93 around here, no 91.

You can run it on lvl 3 with 93 oct fuel no problems. If you wish you can bump your timing up .50 for each oct level. But as is it will run 93 oct no problem.

I run lvl 2 with a timing of 2.00 because I run 93 octane. I could push higher by 1.00 or so but I like it where it's at.

PS: you should make timing changes in .25 increments if you are unsure about it. If it knocks once bump it down ASAP.
