Tuned Ecu...Gas mileage?

I have noticed that most of renntech's tunes add +2mpg but I can't seem to find this info for the C63.

I am curious to read other forum members reponses....

Which tune are you leaning towards?

I'm trying to refrain from "modding" my car, but the urge is too great. I'm just curious :o but this information will not sway my opinion on which one to get.

Most of our clients report a slight 2-5 mpg milage improvement, if they drive in a similar fashion than they did before we tuned the car. But if the right foot seems to be heavy.... the milage goes down!

Might as well do it all together, otherwise you have to send your tune in again to delete the primary cat CEL....unless of course you don't mind
