    I've been through a few tanks of fuel now and have done exactly the same trips in the same conditions with fuel from the same station a couple times (before and after). I noticed no significant difference on flat(ish) straight highways with cruise set at 105km/h (65mph). I noticed a roughly 8% increase through a mountainous highway with lots of slowing for corners and big hills to climb. Conclusion: Seems to help more under greater load.

    That conclusion makes sense, when you are in closed loop you will see next to no gain in mileage, but when in open loop / greater load is when the Eco Block shines :)

    Yes, I have a regular cab in-line 4 cylinder 5 speed pre-runner. If I push it until the fuel light comes on I usually get 450ish, give or take, miles on a tank of gas with my normal driving conditions. But also I don't have any added weight of armor or larger tire diameter keep in mind. Although I have been getting this weird itch for a brute force hybrid front bumper lately...:spy:

    My DCLB 4x4 will only be a needle's width below 1/2 at 220. All day, every day.
    With out even really trying I can hit 330 before the light comes on.

    sounds like you need an eco block. :wink: you know, with such a small amount of lift and those puny tires :rolleyes:

    that rig's probably in open loop all the time! :dancingbacon:

    Got mine today, I'll be installing in a few days. Unfortunately I've only ran 3 tanks through the truck so not much of a baseline to go off of.

    I got one...hence the 15 MPG. This thing made a big difference for me. 35's and a 3" lift...this joker sits low.

    Loud as hell URD exhaust!
    Im in the same boat.

    After 5 tanks with the EcoBlock I went from 15.2 mpg to 15.7 mpg. So thats a .5 mpg increase. This is with driving 90% city /10% highway. I cant really tell if there was a performance increase since Im running 4.56 gears and a 3" exhaust.
