    The worst part about it being so nice is you can't have as much fun off road i sometimes wish it was a beat up rust bucket.

    Figures ? what like dyno figures lol i believe they are a waste of time and often decieving.
    They are handy for before and after comparisons i guess if done same day same dyno weather conditions etc.

    Hills are no longer a challenge but a pleasure.
    It is more like a car to drive now then a truck.
    Economy i haven't really tested thoroughly around town i had the fuel wound up a fair bit on the last tank and got 530 k's
    I still have a quarter of a tank since winding it down and am at about 400 k's but have been using the aircon a lot on this tank .
    And i am still running the stock exhaust as well i need to make a dump pipe to go with a 3 inch system i bought then fit it up.

    Did you get done over by the dyno or the tuner or both lol
    I do remember reading about your detonation issues.
    It is more often then not motors are blown up prematurely by a nice big hill on the road after be dynoed for peak power unloaded.
