10-4...

I will be eagerly awaiting your findings. In the meantime, I'm gonna go ahead and download this latest one and start playing around .

If there is added throttle response I'll be thrilled (not that the other tune doesn't offer this, but I'm so used to gasers in the past that i'll take all the touchy throtttle I can get.

Speaking of which...what TQ setting provides the best throttle response? I thought it was suppossed to be the lower the number, the better. But i have not found that to be true...

TQ2 is the most responsive, unless you stab it too hard and flood the fire (as evidenced by smoke that doesn't quickly clear).

I bought the smarty jr 2 weeks ago. Do you think it has the latest updates? Also, the overhead could be wrong. I was just saying that is what it was reading on the trip up to camp and the trip back. I reset it when I went to camp and then before we came home. Pete

The overhead is almost always wrong.

When you plug your SJR in it will tell you the software and version number, just see what it says.

Has an average mph been cross-referenced to the above?

Yes, and there is not correlation. Freeway tanks back to back (same day) will show errors from 11 to 22%..

It's just a retarded meter, not sure why the gas version is very accurate.

Why not, just reset the odo each time you top off. Tell's you how the hand calc goes.

I have never seen actual mileage in the 20s....I don't have the smarty but the SC as seen in signature but would love some MPGs that high. Unloaded on a trip this weekend it worked out to 16-17 but that was doing 80 @ 2400rpm. I've got 4.10s how much would a lower gear help?

CR's are minimally effected by rpm, not enough to really ever cover the cost for mileage alone.
