Rev limiter and Speed limiter(I think...) stay the same. MPG should stay about the same since its leaning out the car a little, with a little bit of timing advance.

I've said it before, my MPG has dropped a bit, but not because of the ECU.
1. I'm driving the car a LOT harder now.
2. In the winter they oxygenate the fuels in Bernalillo County here, it drops your miliage by quite a bit.
3. Hope ya'll aren't too worried about the MPG thing, Oxygenation is coming to the ENTIRE US year round soon.

The oxygenation of gasoline had its problems though, one of the additives used in the process, is a carcinogen. They didnt test it before they began mandating it. i dont know if they fixed it yet... here is the link, its in the bottom 1/4 of the page

Yeah, I can't stand it. You can feel the loss of power.
Anyways, that's another subject.

Glad you liked it. Mine is still zip tied to my fuze area.
LOL
I've got most of the bolts off, but that bracket is just shaped so wierd you cant get it out of there.
