How much MPG would you gain in ECON mode?

Phil tested his MPG Normal mode vs. Power mode, and can't measure the difference, so he leaves his JDM cars in Power mode. Econ allows the car to upshift at lower speed than Normal, given the same amount of throttle. If you want to upshift sooner, use very light throttle. Econ has no effect in top gear, the mode only relates to transmission shift programming.
