Cons: you MAY lose a few MPG gas mileage. Due to increased power and acceleration you will have a tendencie towards speeding
Knock this one off if you have a programable computer. Last weekend I did some freeway driving and some boosting in there to and got 21mpg. I never got that with my old gsl-se with less than half the Hp.

There are no cons, its a win-win situation.



You'll have more boost than just confidence.

I'm sure if I took a road trip I'd get about 25 also. I did have a few long boost runs in that 21mpg tank I have it tuned pretty well for highway cruise at high 14's:1 AFR.
