Yeah, the wait time for the cable was only about 6 weeks in my case, but I think that since the weather is getting nicer, the list might start getting long again. Even though they just bought a ton of new cables, they go fast.

13.5 mpgs?? Damn... that's what I'm getting on average with a heavy foot with my truck on 37's.... Maybe I should clean my intake and see if I can boost it up some like you did.... damn you for inspiring me to do something productive with my day

Yeah, something was NOT right with that. I only recently started tracking my mileage with the Fuelly app on my blackberry. I've been taking it super easy with this tank to see what my highest mileage will be BEFORE I install the tuned PCM. Then I'll at least have a baseline to see how much I've gained from the tune.

Don't take it really easy. Drive like you normally would.... I say this because having it tuned is incredibly fun and will be hard to keep your foot off of it.

Well when I get the new PCM installed, of course I'll be pushing it a little...I'll want to see what my truck can do compared to stock! I'm just driving like a grandpa right now to see how much mileage I can squeeze out of the stock PCM before installing the tuned one. Then I'll (painfully) do the same thing for one whole tank with the tuned PCM, and see what how my max numbers compare to each other.

so with the cable tune, justin has to send out a separate PCM? I thought it was all done over the computer with the cable?
