Excellent, will be interesting to see how the fuel economy goes :)

Can probably still reduce the dwell a bit if you want. Its a bin mod though so requires a full flash on the PCM. At low RPMs (below 3k RPM) and under steady state it is still a fair bit higher than the LS2 PCM it came from. The ECU uses a static and dynamic dwell, so when it needs more dwell under AE it pushes it high, then drops back when its not needed to stop overheating coils and drivers.
