I think this may have just solved my city mileage issues. I found my PE starting at 35% throttle in the low RPM and dipping to 16% throttle in the upper. The guy that worked on my initial tune got nice dyno numbers, but man my city mileage sucked. I put to stock values and already have noted my gas level keeping much higher before hitting 60 miles...

Ironic how someone who only tunes his own stuff is such an expert on tuning and the quality on tuners in general.
You nailed it.

With a good number of the tuners playing their cards close to their chest, the internet "wisdom" often times gets taken as fact. This leads not only to incorrect tunes, but also customers who read this mess and think they know something about the process and want to "fix" their tunes and end up making it worse.

I like vanilla ice for the ford toons i do! And motley crue for the GM!

2% enable PE LMFAO! Wonder if the oil in there had any viscosity left! Or if we washed the cylinders and bearings dry already!!!
