This sounds like a pretty big rip off to me. Rotorglow, let me know how you make out with him. If he dicks you around, lets just make a convoy trip to those dudes in BC...ummmm Rally something blah blah

Or...you could learn to tune it yourself. Save money, and make your hobby more interesting.

I hear it all the time from fellow car enthusiast to hate on other ppl... its all fun I guess, but personally I love the gauges right in front so u can just look up and down, it's more easy

i honestly didnt believe it at first either, especially since he told me he added fuel to the maps; i guess it's all about usage and volumetric efficiency. it was a 80(ish) mile trip, granted i was doing 55-60mph with cruise control on, but i got those numbers in both directions. not using the real-time reading either, i based that mileage off of gas used v. mileage traveled. left with a full tank, topped off at destination, topped off upon return.

often times, with a slight slope, real time was showing well over 50mpg for extended periods of time, but that data i just take with a grain of salt since i can floor it to 60 and then coast to a stop and get awesome mileage while i'm coasting...
