It may be a coincidence, but comparing two months' data before and after installing the BHR ignition, I recorded a 0.4 mpg average improvement in fuel economy (same commute route, speeds, traffic conditions).

Correct!

Better burn means more power means smaller throttle opening means less gas used for same hp requirement.

Glad to help. And the fuel pump really works. I was able to take 2.5 seconds off my time at the local autox thanks to not having to wait for the fuel pump to come back after left hand sweepers.

BTW: Make sure you borrow Ray's fuel pump retaining ring removal tool. The ring is a bitch to get off without the right tool.
