Regardless, we do not test, nor keep any records for 0-60 times. We stick to simply reporting dyno numbers since they can be accurately repeated.
0-60 times can fluctuate greatly based on driver skill, reaction time, transmissions, tire temperature, tires etc. When you are talking about a couple fractions of a second difference meaning the difference between good and bad time and with so many variables that can be manipulated it really isn't a scientific measurement.
For example… Car and Driver universally gets the best 0-60 times for any car that is released. They do this by quite literally destroying the transmission in the process. They do things to eek out a few extra tenths no one in their right mind would do to their own car just for the best possible number. We strive to give realistic numbers and data, not data that is skewed.
Not to mention if we did report those types of number we would have guys in the back parking lot doing burnouts all day trying to beat each other’s time and not working. While fun, it wouldn’t exactly be productive. =)
All that said it looks like our development car customer will be supplying some numbers if you want something to hang your hat on.

Typically 91 Octane vs. 93 is a reduction of about 3-5% in power. Not a huge amount but it is there nonetheless.
No discounts for early subscribers. DINANTRONICS actually has never been on sale from the factory for its entire existence (nearly 2 years) so I don't see that changing any time soon unfortunately. You can always hit up your local dealer however and they may be willing to work with you. Always are looking to earn additional business after all.
