No its normal...ecu needs to adapt to the Procede unit...Your MPG is probably bad is because you are getting on it more because of trying to test out the tune!!!! Let off the gas there..lead foot!!!

Are you getting any codes?

If not, then just give it a few days. How are you measuring gas mileage...with the car's computer or at the pump?

It could be that with v2, you've been nailing the gas nonstop, and getting lousy mileage.

Anyway, with PROcede v2, I'm getting what I've always got...~16-18mpg city / ~ 23-25mph highway, and ~ 20mpg mixed. I think you should give it a few days to adapt, then reset your car's mpg computer, and see what you're getting under "normal" driving.

Reset your meter and see what your highway mileage is compared to city.
