Default Tuning issue

I have a 2020 3.5eb and loaded a 93 performance/tow tune. My OAR would sit around -0.26. And would see +4.00KR on light acceleration. Thinking maybe Covid fuel is crap I put the 85+ Adaptive octane tune in when I accelerate the truck now goes -6.00KR under acceleration and my OAR jumped to +1.00 and my trucks a complete dog. I’m lost at this point. This is all on shell 93

Have you done any logs and sent them to 5 star? That’s where I would start.

Maybe they sent you my 94 octane tune lol. It expects true 94 octane, but runs HARD.
Can't compare to an 85+ octane tune.....it's just a tune with a more tolerant and weaker load command and less base timing across the board. That said, I am speaking from experience with the BCB tune I had that was "adaptive" and it made stock or less horsepower on 94 octane.
