what kind of MPG

[bigblue]

What kind of MPG change does the BB tune do for most people? Im sure it increases it because tunes usually do, but i havent seen much talk about it. I was wondering if everyone that has the vehicle tuned by Black Bear is getting better gas mileage if so how much change?

i was at 11 or slightly below, maybe 10.7 and now im close to if not above 13. And thats been on 2 different tanks both of which i needed to floor it or leave it running using the auto start. so i say this summer i could get close to 14 which is awesome! i mean +3 is bad ass! even +2 is ok... but performance gains are awesome so i want to floor it everywhere! haha

It depends on how you have Justin tune it.

I was really curious to see how it helped the mpg after putting on some 24s. I know when the 4s go on it's going to lose probably 2-3 mpg. If it gets tuned how close r yall getting back to stock? The 24s will be on in less than 2 weeks!!

Getting a tune too, in Houston. What recommendations do you guys have to ask for in the tune? I am going to ask him to make the tow/haul button my power button, but what else would you guys recommend for him to do?

i just had him do a basic performance/economy tune. A split down the middle because i wanted the power gains but also better MPG. I didnt have the tow/haul mode changed because i tow stuff and didnt want that to be messed with. Also ask about the V8/V4. He usually takes this out as the program can cause weird bumping when it goes back in forth from those two. But mine wasnt noticeable so i left it alone. honestly its just ask for what you want and he can do it!

improves from everyone I hear, unless you can't refraine from mashing the gas
