Obviously, whatever you're doing is working. Keep it up!

I'm loving that we have a decent community of 6th gen civics here now! It certainly beats trying to discuss anything at honda-tech.
Well, I try to put it in lean burn then speed up a little before the hills and put the throttle as high as I can without breaking lean burn in order to stay in lean burn as far up the hill as possible, coasting down of course.

Not completely sure if that's optimal or not, going to see if I can set up a test of some sort once I get an mpguino.
