how bad was the MPG PRE tune, post install?
I think I was getting about 17 or 18 in the city and 21 on the highway before I had it tuned.

Also as Kix mentioned in a thread somewhere if you have a habit of letting the tank run down to the last bar or so before getting gas, be really careful. The last 2 bars seem to fly by. I don't know if this effect is just an illusion or is real, but I have noticed that it is much riskier than it used to be when running the tank low between fillups.

Its also not good for the fuel pump to let the tank go so low. Fill up at quarter tank or so.

^ HAHA... when it happened to me I was on the freeway onramp. I had two bars and 200 yards later 1 bar and maybe 5 mins later 0

I was about 10-15 minutes from the nearest gas station and barely made it. The little incline/driveway of the gas station almost stalled my car.

Ever since then I dont let it drop past 1/3 of a tank... just too risky.

Get it tuned and you will have better mileage and more power! Win win in my book.
