Well since i removed the cat half highway/in town (with my heavy foot) got about 500km's to 75litres of gas. Calculated to about 18mpg. I have before removing the cat 7-8mpg. So a big change in millage. I also put a new o2 in which bumped it then reduced agian, but I will be cleaning my tb and etc... to see if that works. My idle was fixed but it still jumps a bit, it should idle smoothly, I am thinking dirty spd pos sensor.
