New to the forum. I just bought my first ram(2015 Tradesman) with the 5.7 Hemi and was wondering if you guys are using 87 0r 89 octane.The owners manual says 87 acceptable but 89 recommended.Any advice would be appreciated.
If I remember correctly before I bought my Diablo Sport Tuner...giggity....lol, truck seemed to like the 89 much better than the 87. Plus I got a little bit better mileage, too. Course, this is on a 2008 Ram although I can't imagine the results as far as just an increase alone would be much different on your 15.
Besides, another thing to consider, when the manual (mine for my 08 says it too), that even though 87 is acceptable but 89 is preferred, that pretty much tells me that I really don't want to run 87 if I want the full potential outta my motor on factory program. Basically they're just saying that 87 will work without pre detonation pinging and won't void your warranty if you use it.
