gogo Member of team Kittens Member 609 Member For: 22y 7m 17d Location: Melbourne Posted 20/02/06 10:01 AM Posted 20/02/06 10:01 AM I am a little confused aswell! can you just get a custom tune to improve economy and power without purchasing a flash box?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>In short - Nope.There are two mechanisms for tuning these cars - the piggy back or the ford flasher box (=edit). Your fuel economy should improve marginally if tuned for this (perhaps 5 - 10% dependant on what else you do), but I would not expect any huge gains - the best way to improve fuel economy is change the way you drive - or in an extreme sense - remove power boost and available rpm to decrease your ability to drive in a manner that consumes more fuel - but then what is the point.My 2 c.Cheers,Ben.
