I am trying to figure out the best way also. I have read easy acceleration. How easy is easy. The link above seems to suggest that going out fast is better than going out easy. I have ready to accelerate as fast as possible without going open loop. I have read that accelerating with a high LOD is the best way. The RPM stuff doesn't mean much to me since I drive an automatic and have little control over what RPMs the car shifts at. I have no clue what BSFC is.
Can someone post in easy to follow instructions the best way to accelerate for the best fuel efficiency. Pretend that I am kind of slow (um...yeah...pretend :P ).

Thanks,
RJ
