Only use Top Tier retailers.

No ethanol, better gas, better driving.
And has anyone checked with Wait4Me preformance or PCM4Less? I'm looking at doing a Wait4Me tune on my blazer...basically you can send them your ECM or buy one from them for 150ish, and you tell them your upgrades, where you want the max power, torque limiters, top speed, etc. If these guys could do a LR it would be a pretty big boost I would think.

I have used www.powerchipgroup.com and liked the change.I was getting better mileage with the chip until the area I live in started using ethanol.
With less power in ethanol I was worried about what could happen to the motor so I pulled it out.
I will have RPI do my new chip set to work with my performance cam and other mod's.
The RPI chips do remap the fuel chip also so ethanol will be less of a problem.

Wait wait wait...I thought ethanol was MORE powerful, but burned faster, causing less mileage. Ethanol also increases burn efficiency of gasoline, further reducing mileage per tank.

What every it does its less power and less mileage in our motors.
It maybe better in Top Fuel Cars but even Flex fuel cars that run E-10 get less mileage and alot less on E-85.
