No offense meant.. I'm glad your testing things out and I'm really happy to hear about all the positives from the tune.
No its cool lol...no hard feelings. i only said that because someone had asked if i changed my driving habits because they get around 34-35mpg and i said no i didnt but i was stuck in traffic forever during these tests. Maybe i shouldnt have said that i would get higher mpg if i ran to E because now that im reading it, it does sound mis leading. I was just putting it out there that i stopped the car when the gas light came on because thats how i did the last two tests on the stock tune and i didnt want to change my testing procedure just in case anybody would have asked why i didn't stop at E. I feel like there's more gas in my tank than i think i have because during the run the gas light kept switching on and off. The place where i did the run is literally a min from my house and as soon as i stopped i parked my car right there so i added only 1.6 miles to the trip. just in case ppl were wondering
Sorry again for the mixed up bro, that was my fault not yours
