What do yall find is the best setting for increasing fuel economy on your TS MP-8 or Ramifier? I have played around with it, but havent noticed any noticeable gains, maybe its my heavy right foot, though. Let me know what setting yall usually run on on a day to day basis. Thanks.

I installed one of these on my truck and I thought it was going to blow it up. I was told the program in it was junk and just shipped it back to where I bought it from. Im not going to give them another chance to program it. most guys run them on lower settings, they say dont run it all the way up.

well when the truck finally started it ran very rough. I sent the mp8 back today. not ******* ts because ive talked to them a few times and they seem like a nice crew down there. the program was bad or something in the box. I was trying to fix my low rail pressure the cheap way and decided just to send it back instead of waiting to see if they can get it programmed right

When I run mine it is not for economy either. I use it for smoke and when I drag it is on about 50% and when I pull it is at about 75%.

Yeah, I usually just leave mine turned all the way down when I'm just driving around, but I thought there might be some mpg gains in it set on a lower setting. Thanks for yalls input. I am leaving for a 1200 mile trip tomorrow and I think I am going ot set it on a low setting, maybe 20%-30% and see how it runs.
