never tought of that like that, but yes, any mod that makes low load more steady you can maintain eco cam longer and get better FE...

but it is much more easy to keep it in eco cam by going higher in rpm (more hp/torq available)
so this mode is "made for" cruising at high speeds, only after 3.500 rpms it turns off...

under 2k rpm any hill will make you go off eco cam, cause need more load, that will disengage it...
