ACC2 and EDU calibration

Hi,
A few months back, I upgraded from an 88 9kt to a 97 Aero. The cost/aggro of finding a low mileage, salt-free 5sp was worth it for the most part. But, like everything in life, it's had its tradeoffs. One of them concerns the ACC. On my 88, I just never touched it. It always kept the cabin comfortable and made the best decisions about what to do. ACC2 isn't as good in my opinion, and I gather that others on this BB concur.
Anyway, question 1. These days, I want the ACC to provide heat (even though I'm in SoCal. But when I start the car in cold weather after it's been driven for a while (warm engine compartment) I have to drive quite a ways before the ACC stops cooling and starts heating. My 88 did this too but it "did the math" much faster. Is there a cure for this? Is it related to the outside temp. gauge that also shows ridiculously high temps when the car is not moving (again, warm engine compartment)?
Question 2: The EDU consistently delivers inaccurate average mpg. It varies but seems to be 15 - 20% high. Is there any way to re-calibrate these things? And, while we're talking about mpg, ain't it grand to get performance AND 29 (freeway) mpgs these days??
Thanks for people's thoughts.
John Levin
