Default Edge and fuel MPG

Is this site fixed?!? Thank God, if it is. I am taking a road trip here soon from WA to CA/MX here soon. Anyone running the EDGE w/ Juice OTH and experimented with the different settings. I am looking to get the best mileage possible due to exhorbitant fuel prices. Usually I run it on stock (setting 0) but I have "heard" of other folks running theirs on race (setting 5) and getting better mileage. Anyone?!? Thanks, Mike.

Running the edge on 0 isn't gonna do anything- its stock setting. I have the greatest mpg increase on level 5 with lowest low end response set. Don't abuse level 5 unless you want to buy a new tranny. I usually run 3 as an all around drive setting.

yeah cranking up the power and keeping your foot out of it will yield the best results. on grades, keep your foot steady and let the torque push you up, your overall speed will drop, blood pressures will rise but hey, it's your wallet so to bad. I've typically seen a 5~8 mph drop on the grades depending on how steep it is. also keep your boost below 10 psi, 8 is better but 10 is not unrealistic.

Excellent, thanks for the advice. I will try both of these recommendations.
