Pretty ideal conditions on this one. Mostly back roads where I was able to do allot of long coast downs. I had about 150 miles of hwy as well where I did 60-50mph p&g's. I had no city driving at all. Average speed maybe 30? I recently switched to 0w20 mobile1 full synthetic in the transmission and it's shifting allot smoother with noticeably better throttle response. Also put 0w20 mobile1 in the engine.
On another note, I got my mpguino in the mail a couple days ago so i'm looking forward to honing in my shift points even better than I have been (although I've owned some cars with factory instrumentation so I have some practice with it).
