The higher tune uses pressure which REALLY throws off the overhead. Maybe that is why they are thinking they are getting better mileage. It's tempting to think you can get better mileage, but as we all know, the more power, the more fuel... When I've got my stack going, I see 33.8mpg on the overhead at 70mph on the highway... That is insane...

According to Johan, who is the guy who wrote the programming, extreme has added pressure. He didn't say how much....?
