[QUOTE="BIRDMAN, post: 95941, member: 18"] Does the tune affect Off Road Mode? Well, yes and no. When I switched in to T/H or ORM throttle response was markedly less touchy and seemed just about stock except the shifts were a little bit firmer. It didn't change the shift points but I definitely felt more transmission pressure on the shifts. At first I wasn't sure about it but since I have been back to stock now I can say that with some certainty. I was very surprised/pleased with the seat of the pants improvement. Aside from the fact that breathing on the gas pedal would make your neck snap it was so touchy, the power was much sharper and kicked in hard, fast and long. It's like max horsepower was on tap from 3500-5500rpm as opposed to 4500-5500 stock. It was a much sharper feel too...rather than the power building, it just kicked in, revved high and shifted hard with authority-pushing forward with each shift almost like a shift kit. I do believe that the top end power and hard 1-2 shift improved my 0-60 time(watch the vid and time it yourself) Gas mileage improved while cruising nice and easy but the minute you romp on it or goose it at all, forget it the thing guzzles bad. I actually went a few days at one point where I did a lot of stop/go/short trips and I was showing 8.X mpg on my dash readout. Using Super...that kinda hurt. Otherwise if you drive smoothly you can hope to get at least stock mileage. watch my 0-60 video with the tune installed [url]http://s233.photobucket.com/albums/ee107/BIRDMAN1385/?action=view¤t=VID00014-20100520-22442.flv[/url] [/QUOTE]
