Not familiar with what the PO is, but if your EcoDiesel is straight piped and you have someone rev it stand behind it and it is fairly loud. Not loud like Lamborghini loud but fairly loud for a regular street vehicle. Nice part is it never gets very loud in the cab. If you look up YouTubes of...
Welcome Bchurch, a tune will definitely help mileage. I averaged closer to 25 before tuning even when being easy on the pedal. I think the tune is definitely worth the time and money if you are in a state that you can do it. Here’s my mileage for the last month or so. Took this pic yesterday...
