Default predator performance tune in California

has any one who has used the Predator performance tune in California experience any problems due to the 91 octane rated gas. I want to buy this programmer, but I want to be sure it will work fine here in Cali. Thanks fellas

I've had a Predator tune in my car for about a year now. I initially didn't have a problem with KR, but developed an intermittent KR problem during the summer (unseasonably hot). Asked for and got a Custom Tune from Diablosport to successfully zero out my LTFT's and eliminate the KR at WOT. Haven't had a problem since.

Even before the Custom Tune, the Predator download resulted in +14rwhp/12rwtq peak, with +17rwhp/17rwtq lower in the rpm curve using that same "urine-like" 91 octane Cali gas.
