mpg?
I installed the xcal II 87 Octane tune from brenspeed last Wednesday. Absolutely love the throttle response and added power!!! It's like a new machine. AWESOME!! However; before the tune with just the K&N CAI I was getting on avgerage 19.5mpg. I just now have gotten through the first full tank of gas with the tune and the mpg is down to on avgerage 18mpg. I've talke to Brent at brenspeed and he said he has have people gain as much as 1.5mpg and some lose and he couldn't do much about it. Granted I did alot of goosing around at first but I've yet to see it jump above 18.4 with alot of flat interstate driving. Anybody out there with a similar setup seeing any gains or similar losses?
Thanks in advance

RE: mpg?
Thanks for the info guys. I was just curious. Anyway, it's not like I bought the car for it's great gas mileage.[8D]
So far the computer has fluctuated from 18.4 on the interstate to and from work to back down to 18 when i'm playing around in town. I agree still pretty good mileage for the power

RE: mpg?
hey slak,
your mpg moves that much? i tried the "out of throttle" and the "goose and go" method on seperate tanks and they were only seperated by maybe only about .5mpg. Different cars; different results i guess. I agree with you though, there's nothing better than unleashing the power
