I'm looking to stretch my mileage a bit...these gas prices are killing me. Not sure if you do efficiency tunes or just power and performance tunes.

I would have to do the mail-order data logging since I'm in Alaska, unless you plan on coming up here (probably not a bad idea, actually...we have an enormous population of Tahoes/Yukons/Trucks).

Could you please let me know if you have a tune that significantly improves mileage (it'd have to be worth my money in the long run) and how much it would cost?

Thank you!

That's it? I was hoping they'd send me a Prius. :)

Realistically, MPG gains vary from vehicle to vehicle- depending on engine, driver, modifications and gas (octane and quality).

We do our best to pull as many MPGs out, but can not guarantee results.

I would definitely recommend cleaning your throttle body and MAF. Also, making sure you are using quality oil.

I know it is not the answer you are looking for, but I have to be honest.

No problem, I appreciate the response. I do need to clean my TB and MAF, though. Probably long overdue.

Now that I'm thinking about it, the weather is decent so maybe that'll be a good project for this evening.

:)
