Yeah but hasn't mileage gone to **** in them too since they started pushing that low sulfur crap?

 

yes, also true... I lost 1.5~2.0 mpg in it when they went to the ULSD. I still am however able to easily get 18 mpg on the hiway unloaded... best yet is 20.6 mpg coming back from Washington.

 

oh yeah, forgot to mention that I still have to deal with the crap gas in the audi tt which is the commute car these days...

 

that sucks. I stay away from gas with ethanol in it. even 10% makes the difference between me getting 15mpg and about 13.5 and that's not a one time observation.

 

Pa is less than 10%. Thanks for finishing what I started.

 

Wait, so are you sayin you can return your TB to the dealer?
Then get a fastman?...
I'm just confused a little.

You pay an 80 dollar charge for the fastman TB at the dealership, then take back your old one and get your 80 dollars back?

 

no. its a core charge. you pay $380-something dollars for a fastman TB, from fastman. after you put it on, you send him your stock TB and he refunds you $80.

he uses this stock core to re-machine. that's how he makes his product.

some people elect to keep their stock TB, so they can put it back on somewhere in the future, and re-sell their fastman for cash. so it ends up costing them an extra $80.

dealership has nothing to do with any of this.

 

^^ Or, you can do like I did and just send him your TB if your truck isn't your primary vehicle. Turnaround was 5 days for me, and that thing is a work of art.

 

Or go to a junk yard and pull one and send them that one? You will still have yr stock one and get yr 80 bucks back.

 

'Cept ... how much did you drop at the yard? No free lunches.
