Economy mode question...
I already chimed in on my own thread, but again, using the stage 2 91 octane high altitude reflash and all the supporting hardware (TBE, intake and boost pill assembly) and right after a complete drivetrain and engine oil change, I've gotten as high as 24.9 miles per gallon on combined highway/city, combined aggressive/conservative style driving.
Basically, I take it easy and relaxed on the freeway and once I enter the city, pure anger and road rage take over.
100 mile round trip drive every day.
I haven't even used the economy mode yet.

funny how I only see a couple of different timing cells and fuel cells in that tables when I look at the economy map and a stage 2 map. I wonder how much of the economy map cruising area and stage 2 cruising area are/can be the same?
i saw a big increase in mpg... drove to san fran from sacramento and then back and still had a bit more then 1/4 left.... on stock map id have to fill up coming back home... i dont kno how this will help any1
car runs around 10 psi and cant go higher then 5k rpm... soi its kinda slow, but the mpg is way nice

That makes sense as far as saving gas. I have not yet used the economy mode as I like to have power on tap at all times. I need to driver her very "gingerly" to see if I can get better fuel economy without having to change maps.
I get 300 + to the fuel light coming on utilizing the Cobb Stage 2 91 map, and usually hae 2 gallons left over. Supporting mods of course, but other mods that i will be getting tuned for soon. Hopefull I can see 350 + to the tank.
With the economy map, I see a little better, but again, I have parts that are above the description on both the stage 2 tunes.
The sweet spot on the freeway is between 75 ~ 80 MPH and my revs hover at approx 3500. Im not full spool on boost at this RPM, but the minute you do a full spool, the needle drops pretty repidly.

Come to think of it, I am not sure that I could even use the Cobb OTS economy map. This is because I am currently running the Perrin Stage 2 93 Oct map with their E.B.C.S.

How are you guys getting that good MPG out of your cars? I got an 06 straight 9 and at BEST, I got 220 and I got that when I did a test and did no hard driving for that tankfull. Otherwise I get any where between 160 to 205. 100% City.
Oh yeah, my car so far is completly stock and I'm waiting on my Cobb stage 2 to be shipped out this week, can't wait.
