Default 00 Teg LS Sputtering?

This morning on my way to work, I noticed that I needed gas. It was on E, so I decided to stop by the station on the way to work. About 1/4 away, my car started to sputter, I was like oh well, I'm almost outta gas, please make it! So I did and everything was cool right? No I filled up with 91, and the car still sputtered. I didn't worry about it, I ran the lines almost dry, there was probably air bubbles in them. It still does it bad when I put my foot down out on the highway....It acts almost the same way it did when I left an injector clip unplugged once It also rained like hell last night. I guess there could have been water in the gas tank, or something under the hood got wet, or and injector is plugged since I drove the tank almost dry. Im hoping it's just a combination of wet weather and water in the fuel..Any thoughts?

Either some water at the bottom of the tank got in or some kind of contaminant. Try running some fuel system cleaner. If that doesn't help, replace the fuel filter.

Aight, it's all good now! Went out on the highway again and put my foot down in 3rd, cleared up good! Runs like a bat out of hell with the 108 octane booster.

Commencing turbo install tonight, DSM Td05 showed up along with the FMIC and charge piping, all oil lines, the DP, turbo manifold, intake manifold and all hardware. Just waiting on ECU, injectors and fuel pump, oh yeah!
