If I had a turbo I would run it in non eth mode. Apparently non eth mode pulls some timing. Better off being conservative with timing on a forced induction application.

I don't have a sidekick but do have a boondocker turbo and i run mine in premium mode. I did have to add fuel with my 12 pro so with the newer ones you might want to get a a/f gauge just to confirm your ok. F/A raito does run leaner or higher on mine so i added a bit more fuel everywhere it needed to be added. Also if you run the premium mode to be safe add a little more race fuel to your mix for your own protection. The risk for detonation is higher. Im sure this is why many builders recommend the eth mode.
