I belive he has a tune that can activate it for a exhaust brake tune or something. They can also turn it off as well. In my hi idle i had Jody turn it off so it doesnt make that horrible noise when its warming up in the winter

He can put you in a decel tune that activates the EBPV to close off. I just got it and have not had the opportunity to mess with it much.

I'd like to know also. Th e best that i can get is 15 with the cruise set at 65. I have an automatic tranny and have thought about going to a 6 speed if it will get me to 19 mpg or so.
