jd sure will, Over on the FTE v10 site there are a bunch of stickies on the 5 star system. I didn't read all but only a few. I was looking for something to calm the engine down and improve throttle control. Mike the owner said it would as this is drive by wire system and thats why the throttle response is so poor. Gas to look at the setting, see how much rpm there is and then make corrections and so you end up at 4000 rpm when you dont need it! At least thats what I was trying to get rid of. We leave next week so will try to let all know how it goes. will be pulling a hyundai elantra (2700 lbs) and heading east on I10 with 1st night hopefully at van horne.
So in next couple of days should be able to give some info on mpg, and overal performance. I run a scan gauge and the other day it was showing 15mpg for a short stretch of straight and level and generally stayed around 9. Best I had before was 8-8.5 in same config w/o towing! 5star does say a 10% improvement so maybe it will?
