I read that with installing the MP3 ECU I NEED to run 91, which is not a problem for me, however on Occasion I do let my brother borrow my car, and he literally for the life of me will not believe that It requires Premium fuel after I swap the ECU. I'm 900% sure he will put 87 in and there will be all kinds of knock and just in general bad things happening. IS there a flex fuel sensor which would allow me to connect it to the ECU and have it retard or advance timing based on the Octane rating of the Gas, so if I put 93, or even 107 it would advance the timing even further, 87 it would retard the timing, or should I just go for a standalone with a dynotune at that point?
Flex Fuel sensor install?

I'd suggest hiding your keys. If you can't do that, what about relocating the ECU somewhere easy to reach? This way, you can swap to the Manual P5 ECU when you let your brother drive it.

if i remember correctly, the mp3's ecu will detect the 87 octane gas and retard timing on its own.
