Lol.



:lmao: could be, I don't know anything about the FD voltage regulator....apples to oranges.
46 hours straight.... gonna try to break the 2 day mark this time around.

A voltage regulator is only slightly related to fuel mileage, the FPR compensates for most of it.

Think of it this way.... constant 13v+ is going to draw less amps and create less load/heat on the pump. That alone is reason enough for me. Tuning for fuel economy is pretty damn easy, just takes two people and a few hours cruising around.... or datalogging.
