Could you post a photo of your tabs on the car ?
So far the numbers are hopeful,1 mile a gallon gain is large,looking forward to the weeks results.
With your commute consistency the results should be repeatable the following week, might be good to note temperature differences or lack of as the temp variation will have an effect. Maybe vary the VG's duty time from the mornings one day to nights the next to try and even out the temperature variations in your findings.
This mod will need to be retested to factor out all the variables that could sway results. The VG's need to be tested to death, they have a lot of convincing to do for the perfectionist or anyone really who wants hard evidence. The longer the drive with cruise control the better,which is great you are using it, its hard to sway cruise control results over the same route day after day.
I have a preconceived notion as to the amount of gas saved, your findings will be interesting,to say the least.
