ECU Reset (pedal trick) is great
Since I've had my car, the best mileage I got was 28mpgs and that was at the very beginning, AND I had to be drafting behind somebody. Since then it has only gotten worse and got down to 24-25mpg on the loonnnnng drive to Texas from Georgia. Talk about gas money. By then I had installed the HPS post-maf tubes that I guess made it worse? I don't know...
But then, recently I did the full ECU reset where you turn your car to the ON position then hit the gas pedal a certain many times and a few crazy combinations. After that, the car definitely "felt" a bit quicker but my gas mileage is amazing! I was getting a SOLID 30mpg earlier today on the highway in 6th gear going 80mph, by myself. I couldn't even achieve that before while drafting directly behind an SUV. Just wanted to say that if you're having any gas mileage and/or recent mods then you might want to give this a shot.
