This entire forum could be renamed The 5 Star Lovers and be very accurate!

Along with the sticky thread about 5 Star everyone whose ever installed one raves about it. If the results alone don't sell ya' then Mike's reputation for insanely great customer service should tip it in!

It wont make much difference on mpg's. These engines avg 11-14 mpg empty. Once you get one your mileage will drop cuz you will love it soo much that you can't keep your foot out of the skinny pedal. Mine did!!

The 5 Star tunes are more for the grin factor than MPG factor. If you want better MPG drive slower.

Sounds like he should be enclosing a decal of a Big Ole "Grin" with ever tuner sold.

He could call it the "5 Star Smile....mile after mile"

Just having a little fun, you would be hard pressed to find someone who hasn't been pleased with their purchase or customer service.
