OMG it actually went through.

Anyway, now that I can actually post again, I will have him write me a MPG tune after I run through this tank. I should be getting close to 14 in town and around 17-18 on the highway with my mods.

Thats the most you should get, driving like a grandma with an economy tune.

Believe it or not, I was getting 6-7mpg about 2 years ago. Since then I made some intake, pmu & ecu mods, as well as a new exhaust. It boosted me into the high 11's.

Thanks guys. Yeah, I do drive it like a grandma but at least I pay attention and don't swerve all over the place and use the wrong turn signal.

Anyway, If I can get those numbers I'll be happy. I know this isn't a Prius and it isn't made for fuel economy so I'll be content if I can get a little above the factory rating.

Wow, echseman, that is pretty damn low. At least you're doing better now though. I'm planning a 52mm TB and some 1.7 rockers too so hopefully that will help. Then again, I heard that installing the rockers is almost like installing a mild cam so that might hurt my mileage a little bit.

I didn't mean to use quotation marks in the last post. I typed in the hyphen and the quotation marks were input automatically for some reason. Is a hacker messing with these message boards or something? It has been weird around here lately.
