You can play around with the rpm range and load once you are comfortable with the new technique to see where you get the best mileage from your engine as they'll all be different. Using this technique gets you going fairly quick so you need to be careful not to go too crazy lest you find yourself using the brakes a lot (which negates any benefits you just gained). Try this out and see how it works for you.

I know this is an old
OLD thread... I'm back searching/researching and since I too live at altitude, I thought this may be beneficial.
since I drive a pre-OBD car and I can not hook anything remotely like a ScanGauge up, can anyone confirm this acceleration technique?
