update on my 5star tune

5 star wrote me a great tune for my v10 took it on a 3000 mile trip gained one mpg that isn't what I was looking for.. the drive ability was 100% better all that shifting has stopped. they just added to the tune to turn up the torque a little more and changed the cruse control. they are great help in download the tune from the email.I am not real good on a computer they helped me through it..thumbs up for 5 STAR TUNES

    So, . . . . the big question. What WERE you looking for? That's HUGE (if it's true) but you're not impressed? Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

    I think the OP was more interested in the improved shifting points that 5 Star Tune provides. If anyone buys a 5 Star Tune for improved gas mileage, they haven't read the reviews available on line. Some do report a little improvement, but the majority of praise is for the improved shifting performance and perhaps a little better acceleration when needed.

    And, I'm a happy 5 Star Tuner user!

    What adjustment to the cruise control would be of benefit?
