[QUOTE="MattSVTM3, post: 1517830, member: 29126"] From my understanding, it only takes a few hundred miles for the truck to fully adapt. Since you drove 1k miles, I would expect it to have adapted to the new tune. You could continue to run the economy tune for a while and see if MPG's improve. I have never ran the economy tune from 5 star, just the performance and daily street. My MPG's went down with both options compared to my stock tune. Hoping I will gain some back with my new JDM tune. Loaded the JDM tune this morning and went for a quick drive. Initial impressions are that drivability and shifting is significantly smoother than my 5 star was. Much more enjoyable experience so far. You can tell JDM focused heavily on the shifting. I also did a few pulls at WOT, and it pulls hard. It may just be my butt dyno, but it does feel like it revs up quicker in the higher range as well. These are just quick impressions after driving a couple miles. I'm sure the truck will adapt as I continue to put miles on it, but so far I'm very happy with the new tune. [/QUOTE]
