Avg MPG increase after tune

[mbowers13]

Hey folks, I was curious to see how many of you saw a mpg increase after your tune was done and how much was the increase? I am not as experienced with tune parameters as other aspects of a car's workings and want to get an idea of how far off I may be. I have been on this tune (my first) for about a month and used to get ~20 mpg, now it's up to 23 and slowly climbing. I was really happy with the smoothness, definitely feels a lil better all through the RPM range. How bout you?

Did you do the tune youself, if so, what program did you use? I'm trying to figure out what to use.

thanks in advance.

Yes & No on the tune. I also own a 95 Formula that had been tuned before I got it. I used about 95% of the tables and settings from it for the Vette. I also got some assistance from a member here for final confirmation before I loaded it. Thanks again bjankuski!

I used Tunercat. I thought about Tunerpro (and might do so one day) but Tunercat is more reputable in the area.
