In my research for an ECU tuner for my car, I was reading up on the available off the shelf (OTS) tunes/maps. Interestingly, this is the first time I came across ACN91 (Arizona, California, & Nevada 91 Octane). Apparently, ACN91 is a lower quality fuel (for power) and thus the tunes/maps for ACN91 fuels are the least aggressive, with 91 and 93 octane maps being more aggressive respectively.
MY question is this: What makes ACN91 worse than other 91 octane fuels? What is it about ACN91 fuels that requires a slightly less aggressive tune/map than compared to a 91 octane fuel from other states?
I did ask the ECU tuner manufacturer's tech support department and didn't get a satisfactory answer.
