I have the Visconti also. Was getting check engine lights for lean afr as well but could not get resolution to the issue. I just needed a tuner to look at my logs and make some changes for me. Thus coming over to fa 20 club

I'm getting around 17 mpg on e85 just so you have something to compare to if your gas gauge is acting up. Does FA20 use the racerom features like A/F ratio and fuel tank % on the mpg display? I believe those features are causing the fuel gauge issues. On my Visconti tune I have cold start issues and im in Vegas where its in the 60's right now. Usually takes 4-5 times start it in the mornings.

Just for the record i had both the Visconti Stage 1 and FA20 tunes at the same time, i went back and forth 3 or 4 times but kept going back to FA20 therefore i have stuck with him.

I don't know what's so special about me, but I've never had to wait very long for files from John. All my issues have been resolved rather quickly

That would be great, i don't mind if all of your FA20 E85 reviews are put here, seems like a good place for it.

You didn't get "NO TUNE FOR YOU" 'd, I guess. John's tunes are good quality.

Neither did I, explicitly, but I can only assume given my excessive wait times.

Wait time for FA20club? He was ready to send the tune to me before I was even ready to flash my car. That's like, a negative wait time.

I'm interested in comparing them against mine. You should start your own thread for easier searching by future people.
