Yes sleeping dogs are best left sleeping .
I checked an old log. Octane scaler learned down by about 8-10% in 10 minutes, even with up to 6deg of KR during that time. Also 2% down in 6 seconds: while accelerating vigourously. So the rate is not slow.
The challenge with letting the scaler do the management vs getting timing right is that it conservatively overshoots.
A link from someone else re new Camaro convertibles at Holden led to this info re slow L99's on www.camaro5.com Seems to be well documented, though looks like some less than accurate info re octane scaling with different gas.
