Looking to get an LBZ or most likely an LMM in next couple months and wondering about something. It appears most guys are getting best mpg with higher hp tunes (I already have efi live) and want to know if you can run say a 150hp tune for mileage purposes only on a stock trans with a trans go jr? Meaning not beating on it racing and stuff. Just driving normal. Would trans still be ok under those circumstances or no?

Yes but it depends on your right foot. No cheating.:baby:

If you can keep your foot out of it you will get the best mpg on a pretty big tune. I tried it once and did t even make it a mile :roflmao:
