91oct my friend. Its all we got out here. The car is on its way to the UAE right now. We didn't knwo if we could get the headers and mids built in time to meet the owners deadline. By looking at the owners back tires. I thing we will see this thing pop up in a you tube video at some point.
As for weather/elevation those sort of things. They are corrected by the dyno. However you can not correct for fuel. You should see it in the summer on our crappy summer blend gas. Man that stuff is JUNK! Even my lawn mower doesn't like it.
EDIT: this is kinda what our customer base is like on Scottsdale. Big powered cars, not interested in racing them. It is what it is. If it was me I would be camping at speedworld for the next T&T night. I heard it got down to +700DA the other night.

I'm so glad the summer is over not only does the heat kill HP, but the fuel is so bad. Its just a bad combo out here in AZ. I try to run a mix of 100oct and 91 in the summer. however there isn't a lot of racing going on int he summer, so 100oct at the put can either be sitting a while or empty.

I live in the desert, and up until recently, there were no race tracks around, so the large majority of people that purchase 100 octane at the pump are heading out to places like Glamis. So, off-raod stuff. I asked the saleswoman at the station if they sell a lot of 100 octane and she said, "yes, a lot."
I treat my car and myself throughout the month to a nice mix of 100 octane and 91 octane.

here is something else I noticed with AMG's. It was true with my C55, My brothers CLS55 and a few other cars we've had over the years. I think these AMG's get stronger with age. This C63 in the chart has 70K miles on it. These motors in are just some of the best built motors I've ever seen.
BTW: stay tuned for a secondary cat delete pipe thread coming with pics as soon as I can type it.
