[QUOTE="Warchild, post: 1452931, member: 4"] I have little doubt my MT10 already has a flashed ECU, which would help account for my fuck-all MPG numbers. 🥺 Observed circumstantial evidence: the Exhaust Valve servo motor has been removed and the valve has been hard wired open. Without a Servo-Buddy plugged into the servo motor connector, such an arraignment would normally throw an Engine Light. I don't have such a light. More circumstantial evidence: factory throttle has 3 modes of operation: 1 - aggressive, 2 - standard and 3 - rain. Even when set in Mode 1, the throttle is velvety-smooth, no flat-spots, no rpm "hunting"... that is behavior is [B]not [/B]consistent with typical factory fueling settings in Mode 1, which normally results in an abrupt 'on/off' throttle, surging/hunting, crappy low-speed fueling, etc. I am going to go back to the Kirkland Tuning Gods and re-visit this issue with them. I am fine if they can't do anything to improve MPG; I know that isn't a typical concern of theirs. I am just wondering it they can tell if my ECU has been flashed, and, more important, can they re-flash back to factory settings? 🤔 [/QUOTE]
