Just updating you guys that i will be attempting some runs tonight or tomorrow as promised..ill try another 0-60, and some other runs like 40-70, or a 60-90. not good with editing but ill try and set them all in one video. Im looking for a good spot to mount go pro so it doesnt rattle like last time. Also im still tracking my tank and right now im at about 240 miles and im about to hit 1/4 thank. I havent posted any numbers because my phone got damaged and i had to revert to an old phone that doesnt run torque app very well. But as a reference i have been revving her up a couple of times but for the most part i drove the way i normally drive on the highway. My trips have been mostly 50/50 city/highway crusing about 25-35 during city and 60-65 during highway. Looks like its going to be around 30-31mpg mixed tank which is still freaking awesome considering ive been beating her up a few times and still managed to get great mileage! Loving this tune because there's no sacrifice with the tune. More power/ better gas i need a visconti sticker on my car for real!

Just finished my tank with aggressive driving and got 306.4 miles when my gas light went on. my fill up was 10.247 which gives me a total of 29.9mpg mixed. During this tank drove very aggressively doing multiple runs from 0-80 or 0-60 hitting redline multiple times. The tank was mostly city so i would have to say out of 306.4 at least 180-200 miles were city so 29.9 isnt bad. average speed had to be about 40-50mph stop and go and during highway driving about 60-65. Im still working on some videos trying to get all of them put into one video instead of posting 3-4 videos.

So around midnight i met up with john to get an update. He was nice enough to wait up for me since i got out of work at 11pm. But i rushed and got from long island to CT in under and hour at speeds of 80-90mph. Had my cheap cobra radar but it actually gets the job done and got me out of some close calls lol. So we did the update and the car is just "F***ING AWESOME". Just when i thought the car could not get any better john pulls a rabbit out of his hat. His tune is like a mixture of "FERGIE AND JESUS". The car pulls so much harder now, the torque is smooth now that the dip doesnt exsist, and runs thru the speedo so fast that 100mph is nothing now. So you know i had to bug john and ask him if he can just demonstrate flat-foot shifting and launch control and he said he would give me a little preview. it took me a while to learn but OMG IS THIS SH*T AMAZING. Being able to hold a launch and having the foot on the gas while shifting feels like butter. My acceleration felt so much faster that i swear i think we were doing 0-60 in like 5 secs. The tune alone is amazing, these features are like icing on the cake. I dont know how john does it but he's the f***ing man all jokes aside. Honestly this is what the FRS/BRZ is suppose to be like. You dont drive an FRS/BRZ unless you have this tune. I had to bold that because the tune feels that great and i have to take my hat off to john because he really unlocked this car and he's still going! Best bang for your buck is visconti's tune and maybe a radar because this tune will have you going crazy. Im sure in the upcoming weeks your going to read all the ppl that purchased this tune bragging about it. Seriously john we need stickers that say Visconti TuNed. I cant wait to get my cable and update so i can i have the launch control and flat-foot.

So this weekend i worked the graveyard shift at another hospital as a private nurse for a patient which was about 85-90 mile round trip. Sounds like a bit of drive everyday on the weekends but when your getting paid off the books in cash it makes it worth while lol. So i knew at night there would be no traffic so i figured it would be the perfect time to see what kind of gas mileage i can squeeze out of this car with pretty much 95% highway driving at speeds of 60-70mph. From friday to today i was able to squeeze out 399.1 miles. Went to the gas station to fill-up and filled up with 10.388 gallons which gives a total of 38.42 mpg which is by far the highest MPG i've ever had. Feels good to know your car doesnt kill your pocket at the pump.

Gas mileage dash read out during the trip..wish i would have got that much but i coasted a few times which is what i believe brought this meter up this high

final gas mileage
