Hey all,

2006 Mustang, V6, 5speed, Roush CAI and single GT takeoff exhaust. Predator U7140 running the latest 05-8R38 software using the 87 performance tune. My MPG has gone from 24-25(before tune) to 17-18(after tune). I've tested this thru quite a few tanks of gas.

Ideas? Suggestions? Everything I've read says my MPG if anything should go up if anything with a tune.

Is there a way to "default" the Predator to an as shipped status? I know I need to put my stock tune back in my car before doing anything. How can I tell if there is anything that is "not right" with the 87 tune?

Thanks!

There should be no loss of MPG.
Did you make any other changes to the car after adding the tune (CAI?)
Have you done the math (miles driven/fuel used) or are you basing this on the vehicles on board readout?

Thanks

I don't even have a trip computer. I do the mileage on the gas fill receipt (need to track it for work). Usually it's 250miles (or so) on a 10-11G fill. With the 87 performance tune I'm getting no more than 180 miles on a 10-11G fill.

I drive a LOT, 120M RT every day for this one project I'm on, been on it for 3 weeks so far. Same route and traffic pattern every day for those 3 weeks. I've kicked it back to the stock tune three different times so far. Every time I do I'm back to my normal MPG. It's without question Tune/Predator related.

There are no mods other than what I listed, nothing at all has changed except the tune.

Thanks!
