Anyone have any experience with...

Anyone know if this is a scam or not?

+7 mpg and I might be able to stop with the modz and just be happy with decent power and crazy MPG for a 7K# truck.

"Why DURAMILEAGE EFI custom tuning is the ticket to your fuel savings?"

All that is is a EFI live tune Its not a 100% scam but its not accurate to. Im sure there is no way that they can guarentee a 7mpg gain becaue all trucks are different. Especially if you have some mods.

Yeah...it's not a total scam. IdahoRob uses EFI live tuning, and he achieved 23+MPG in a contest with his tuning. BUT...look at their website and note:

$5.00 dollar a gallon diesel is here. How about......
Diesel is $5.00 a gallon here. And on top of that....the signs below it say 4.99...NOT 5.00. So my theory is, if someone doesn't know proper english...and can't read to save their life or sell a product...I DEF. wouldn't trust them to tune my truck.

Yeah, one of the major things that bothered me was their website just looks like one of the typical scam sites. Testimonials, a bunch of cause billy bob said so blah blah blah, and the plain jai jumbled info that looks like other get rich or any major scam site. Just thought it was worth passing by everyone.
