I used this tune but modified it slightly
Shift Firmness: 20 for all gears
Timing: 1.0

I was averaging 15.5 mpg using the out of the box tow tune. From what my display says I'm at 16.5 now. I did this at a half tank, so let me run this a bit before I give you the actual measure of MPG's. I use 89 octane only.

Your shift firmness being 20,doesnt that knock ya back in your seat harshly or no?

I think ill up my firmness some. Im used to my 450HP Powerstroke throwing me back in the seat so this really isnt getting it done for me. I was getting 13.5mpg before this tune. Im nowup to 15.5 and currently running 87 actually. Going to bump up to 89 and up the timing to 1.0 next tank of fuel.

Ill have a update in a few days just fueled up this am.

Has anyone ever ran Race Fuel say 101 or 103 octane in their truck Obviously like at the track or races? Wonder how far you could go with the timing then? Or if it would handle it?
