OK.....

I'm not really an automotive technician but from my experience, I drive an Integra and ever since I did the mods to it, I save more gas the faster I drive. Don't ask me but that's how my car is. Then again, my car has an upgraded CPU.

once I put the blower, cold air intake, offroad pipe, comp remap in my focus gas millage started to suck if anything just becasue i have my foot in that bitch all the time lol but wtf, I dont really car.....when I want to haul ass and save money I grab my sportbike

lol with the kind of badass hardware you roll could prob trade a couple guns for a GSXR :shock: you have some gnarly guns man

Unless you get into actual fuel remapping or you actually start driving your car differently, those mods shouldn't make any difference in your mpg

Volumetric power upgrades = bad mileage

Stop showing off Stan, hehehe 8)

Dude, I couldn't even make heads or tails from all those calculations, hahaha. I thought I was pretty mathematically versed??? Wrong.....

There's always spark efficiency. I don't know what's available for that thing though nor am I familiar with the ignition system.

0o0oh hey the tornado.... that should help with consistency.

if you put on the intake or use a stock style k&n Filter you should see a little better milage ... the more free flowing airfilter makes it run leaner because the cpu has set up the fuel maps for a more restrictive airfilter.

Stan....your as wrong as two left shoes, lets see some proof lol :lol: :wink:

well I was needing to replace my old muffler on my F150 so I went with the Flowmaster 50 series and the cat back i had uped to a 3". But just had it done on monday so it will be a little bit before i'll notice any differnce in my mileage. I'll keep you updated when i go for a fill up.

Better gas mileadge? Dude......

they aint spinna's but they tight

Sorry, thermal efficiency. I've been messing with boost for so long that all thermal efficiency is in terms of adiabatic efficiency to me...

Another thing you could do Joel is inflate your tires to the maximum allowable (what ever is stated on the sidewall). You could even run 10 psi higher if you feel comfortable with it. When I have my good wheel on, they're blown up to 52 psi.

Although I don't do that for gas mileage. I don't want to bend a wheel. On a good day, my car get's 11 mpg. Economy is non existent in that car.
