It sounds expensive to even try to throw on my car! I think tuning for a DFCO and variable air/fuel ratios under different loads and throttle conditions paired with reduced friction parts and coatings, along with the theory of low RPM torque for low RPM cruising shall have to be enough for my quest to increase fuel economy out of my twenty plus year old engine design.

Honestly, I need experience and I need to really know my stuff if I want to be a developer. College is beating me up on the last stretch to get my Associates, but I won't let the Professors weed me out.
