I get 17 mpg or thereabouts around town... My foot is usually in the throttle pretty good. I run red mode and sport most often. I tried purple and sport the other day... Think I still prefer red and sport.

Like a few others i feel purple hits harder and is more extreme but if you use the paddles a bit and drive it manually red is much better regarding throttle.

I installed the throttle controller a few months ago and have only used the red mode. After reading this thread I tried using the purple mode. Question, is it normal for the unit to flash for a few seconds when you hit the gas peddle? I went through all the modes and it only stays solid on red and green mode when hitting the throttle. In all other modes when you even slightly touch the peddle the unit flashes for a few seconds. I assumed I went through the calibration steps correctly as the unit seemed to work fine in red mode.

Went with purple for a bit and I have a concern about the amount of down shifting. Seems that the curve makes the car downshift CONSTANTLY without or without traffic. Not crazy about this extra toll on the trans so I'll be going back to red.

Mine flashes in all colors when it's working and this is after calibration (if throttle is in it flashes)
