Kennedy Custom Tunes MPG Gains for LLY's?

[Kennedy]

He could well see some benefit, but it's hard to say. Experience tells me to stay away from this one. The quest for improved fuel economy requires driver participation and understaning to be effective. At the very least he'll need to use cruise control to steady his speeds. Slowing down will also definitely help.

Phil,

My first recommendation, besides obviouslt telling him to take it easier on the throttle, would be to install a set of guages. It becomes obvious when you are pushing the engine harder than necessary when you see that boost ramp up and the EGT's climb. Once he sees that, it might help him change his ways, then go for the custom tune. Also, I would hard wire his to the economy tow mode so he can't play with the performance setting because he would love that power too much to stay out of it
