What kind of numbers are you seeing hand calculated cause I've heard the tuners will mess with the trucks computers.

Exactly how I understand it. Once you start changing how much fuel your sending to the motor the computers accuracy for calculating MPGs is shot.

is that truck 2wd or 4wd that the mileage numbers are coming from? Either way though they are very impressive! Congrats!

26.4 by the computer, a little optimistic as the hand calculations work out to a little over 23. This is a 2wd with the only mod being an AFE intake.
