Running 91 octane instead of 87
#27
And my car is having a terrible rpm issue. The rpms bounce up and down really bad during shifts and I can hear it in my exhaust. My gas mileage drops a little every day. And I'm thinking my tune could be causing this.

I ran 93 when NA for over 3 years with no issues. Your problems are elsewhere. Check the throttle body, change fuel filter, etc. Or like mentioned before get the tune relooked at. Any codes?

I changed my plugs and coils like last month. Well apparently my car is slipping in 4th gear and the tune had nothing to do with it. I'm going to try to change my transmition fluid and filter and see if that fixes it if not its time for a new tranny

How many miles on the current fluid? That sucks to hear :/ I've had issues in the past with my 4t45 but it was tune related.

I don't think the fluid has been changed honestly. I got the car with 63k and I've had since jan 2010 and now it's about to hit 90k. I haven't changed it. And The place we got it from didn't say if it's been changed. The only way to know is to check the fluid. But we couldn't find the dip stick.

High 200's.. I need to dyno it to know exactly what I'm at. Motor is bone stock. These motors can handle power if they have been taken care of. I keep up with fluid changes and don't beat the living **** out of it. 117k miles and going strong.

what exactly is driving hard? like stepping on it once in a while or like always stepping on it. I try n do grandma driving whenever I can and only really step on it once in a while when I wanna hear the whine

A good solid tune makes a big difference in the long run as well!
