I did the modification October 14, and then took a road trip the next day. I noticed a lot more power and smoother shifting. I also went from 14 mpg to 17.5 mpg on that trip. When I got back I installed a fuel saver and did some adjusting. The vehicle then went from 17.5 mpg to 12 mpg. After much trial and error and ECU conditioning (read on public documents) I have experienced the following improvements.......

November 4 13.375 mpg
November 5 15.03 mpg
November 6 16.77 mpg

As you can see with 3 tanks of gas I am seeing a steady improvement. I will report more as it improves.

I did the modification and read all the public documents. I then capped PCV, re-routed map sensor to the lowest point of intake manifold on port number 2, put tape on MAF sensor, and reduced and re-routed idle air pathway. 180 degrees from the groove, and increased the gap on spark plugs by 20%.
