So a week from tomorrow I have an appointment to get a basline run and see how good/bad things are with my tune. I'm told from the guy I bought the bike from that it's running 14psi boost (we'll see if that's true), so I'm a bit concerned about it blowing up on the dyno. I've been running 93 octane around town and it seems to run ok. I thought to fill it with 110 a couple times between now and the dyno run in hopes that if the tune isn't 100% I'll have a bit more wiggle room. After my first fill the other day I'm guessing I'm somewhere around 105 octane as there was about a gallon and a half of 93 in it yet. It doesn't seem to like the higher octane for low RPM driving, but I'll survive some short term low end funkiness if it saves me from high RPM detonation next week. Does that make sense?
I'm not sure if it matters for the octane question, but currently the plugs are NGK R CR9E gapped at .028 or so. They looked to be in decent shape when I pulled them to check engine compression last week. Is this a good plug/gap for my setup?
Thanks!

This is on my 01 w/Hahn Stage 1, BTW.
