Yes. I actually bought it with an intake, charge pipes, aftermarket intercooler and a superchips tune. It seems to be pretty quick as it is. Im about to get a 3" exhaust done and get a proper tune done to make some real power.

Ya that's a good idea i had a canned tune very similar to the superchips and a proper tune ran way better and made more power

Sadly E47 or E85 is not around Ontario really.. But I do remember seeing one or two people using Term2's tune making 350 on 91. If im not mistaken.

A e47 tune will have up to 24° timing to make 350hp and a 91 tune usually is around 12°

Doubt you could get close to that on 91 like kmo43 said- can't get enough timing with low octane.

Welcome!

The Superchips tune was great back before GMS1, but then around the same time that GMS1 was released, Trifecta also came out with a tune;
Since then HPT tuners seems to be the major source for really good tunes for our cars.

If your car doesn't have an aftermarket downpipe, this is the best bang for the buck part to install - then it might be worth looking into dumping that superchips tune.

A local does long distance HPT tuning - and is pretty good at it, by the sounds of it, he has clients all over;
If you know anyone that has HPT software, and can help you out, I can put you in contact with the tuner.
