Many have logged Cobb's off-the-shelf maps, and by all accounts, they are conservative enough to be quite safe.
I've been wondering if it's a bad idea to run the 93 octane map on 93 octane fuel. I've never seen octane numbers higher than 93 in Texas, and I don't want to fool around with fuel additives. Do most people run a map rated for a lower octane fuel than what they put in the car?
When I had my Passat chipped, the tuner emphatically told me that it required 93 octane fuel ... which I fed it, and never it had any detonation or performance issues. But I have no idea what octane rating his maps were for...

The boost is controlled by the computer. The chip will alter fuel, timing, and boost. It'll run leaner than stock.
