Nice shill. The link goes to Eb*y.

Unless you want to go to a better (higher octane) fuel, there is nothing to really be gained. Engine have to use conservative timing and knock sesing control to tolerate 87 octane fuel and to better optimize timing for improved power and MPG in a modern hi compression engine, you need more than 87 octane. Some vehicals stock will see a MPG increase with better fuel.

Yes, you can fiddle with the tuning, with something from Sniper Tuning, Inc, called Special Forces. I have a '98 ranger 3.0 5spd that went from about 17.5 to 19+ mpg just by fine adjustments to the fuel mixture and timing.

Performance has been enhanced too... Not by measurement other than MPG, but by seat-of-pants. Goal to improve milage was met, anything else is gravy.
