BMS on 91 craptane

Who runs BMW on 91 if anyone. What settings do you run and do you feel the risk/reward is worth it on 91? New CP is broken in now but we only have 91 here

No e85 out that way? Mixing those two should net you 93.

Used to be a few e85 stations near and I ran it in my GTR for a bit but nothing close anymore. No one bought it so they quit selling.

I run it all the time. No issues. 2.2 psi over stock. You can also add a can of NOS octane booster to 15 gallons of 91 and you will get a 93 octane out of that.

Any idea what 2.2 will give for power and tq? Just wondering if a possible warrant issue (even if remote) is worth the small gain under the 3.0/3.5 setting

I run 3.5 all the time on 91 and I run VP fuel (C12) from time to time as well. 50/50 mix with 91.
Car is an absolute beast !!
