Stupid plenum...

I had something like 3/4 of a tank of gas when I installed it and I just screwed around until it was fill up time and since filling up I have been driving like I have some sense (and not that much either) so I still need to burn some more gas to get it down to 1/4 tank again to fill up and see the numbers on that first tank.
I guess I'll drive it to work over the weekend so I'll have to fill up come Sunday or Monday.

And Purpl, I remember you saying that you hate your Dodge and love that chick truck so no, no performance parts for you.

Running the same as it always has with a little different tone to the exhaust.
Performance-It has a little more pep when I take off like normal (not punching it but not creeping) and it doesn't kick out of overdrive on the highway when I hit a slight incline any more so that cancels out the butt dyno guessing game. It does feel like it has a good bit more umph when you gun it too.

I think it's worthwhile as far as a bit more power, different exhaust tone, supposedly better mileage and no more stupid plenum gasket.
I just took it to go fill up and hit up subway. I only got 11.8 mpg on that last tank of gas which is what I have been getting since installing the Superchips tuner and correcting my tire size.
I filled up at Shell and after this tank I'm going to change the tune from 89 to 91 and see what that gets me. Maybe that last gas station just has crap gas, I dunno.
