I went 245 miles (one tank in the city) with my Xcal3 87 perf tune with no transmission shifting issues at all. I bought the gas at Stewarts. on 10/4/08
I just filled up last night 10/30/08 with 87 Octane from Sunoco. I had the same Xcal3 87 perf tune installed. Imidiately I started having transmission trouble. The worst I've ever had. It was like riding a bull or rolling down a hill on a log!
I drove back to the gas station to read the pump to see if I bought the wrong fuel or something. It said that all fuel contains up to 10% Ethanol.
I then drove to Stewarts to read their pump. They didn't have anything that said there was or was not, ethanol in their fuel and, of course, the employees there had no clue.
I wonder if this could cause an issue with the shifting.
