Default yes mayfair I'm switching again

not exhaust though. lol

I am getting rid of my XZT and I'm going to try to maximize my fuel mileage. So I am going to be trying all of the max mileage modules I can to see who gives me the best results.

so I want to try the quad mileage box but was wondering if they fixed it to show MPG increases at lower speeds yet.

I think EZ makes a mileage box as well. any feedback on this one would be helpful as well

I got 1 MPG on my XZT but I think I can squeak more out of a mileage box. so my XZT is for sale.

I'm really starting to wonder just how effective ALL of these boxes really are. I think if you really want to see true MPG readings, that scangauge thing that MM73 has looks pretty good. It's not going to CHANGE your MPG's, but it'll show you how you'r driving affects it.

FWIW, I managed 1.8 mpg out of the TST box I have... have a look at the mpg thread I have in the sig.

I guess I should have stated this, but I didnt. I dont want to run anything over 30-50 HP. if there is a choice I will go higher if I have the option so I want a plug in box with no adjustablility or no more than 60. I dont need it and will ruin fuel mileage if I have it.

oh and I think I will be redoing my exhaust to regain the low end. I think that will help.
I might go with a 51" donaldson and get rid of the aero.

I'd put the aero where the cat was and do a 30" magnaflow... i'm getting 18's easily now after doing all of the mpg testing I did when commuting to work 85 mi 1 way...
