i know right.. Oh well but the feeling is oh so right though... Thanks bro will see if it change in time..

 

i get like 27mpg at 50-55 and like 25 or so at 65-70. i think around town at 35-40 i get like 18-19 tho.

 

At 55 mph I can roll out 30 mpg easy peasey.

 

Thanks for the reply Kona, it sounds like a tune is better than viagra , lol.
Any downsides to tuning? Lower life expectancy of engine for example? And what is your opinion concerning BBK aftermarket parts? Worth the cash, or go to another company? Sooooo, many questions.

 

maybe i should get 3.73 gears! lol

 

Absolutely, I get great mpg's with my pony.

 

ive been thinking about it but i figured it would kill my hwy mileage. im doing around 2k rpm at 60 what do u do?

 

With my 3:73 gears traveling 75 mph puts me at around 2500 rpm's.

 

With my 2.73's (yes you can laugh) im gettin between 20-22 city and 35+ highway between 55-75 mph. Once i get close to 80 it dips closer to 30mpg. I put a new intake filter on but otherwise stock. Im lookin at 3.55 gears, straight pipe exhaust with resonators and electronic cutouts, and new rims and tires. I know this is all going to affect overall mileage but i dont thnk it will make that much of a difference, will it?

 

I have long tube headers, off road x pipe and two glass pack resonators welded on to help with drone. I'm getting great gas MPG's for some reason.

35 mpg's highway your getting is amazing.

 

Alot of it has to do with the gearing. The ling gear, especially sixth is great for cruising. Around town i can easily drop into low teens and even more so on the country backroads by my neighborhood. I just want that grunt off the line so i wanna go 3.55's

 

3:55 would definetly give you more grunt but 3:73 or 4:10's will give even more grunt and still great for daily driving on highway and city. I debated for over a year about 3:55 or 3:73 gears and super happy I went with 3:73 gears. That gives me really sweet down low grunt and no regrets. Lol

 

Thanks for the input. Eventually i wanna go F/I so thats why im leaning more towards 3.55. But then again i also wanna eventually drop a v8 under the hood

I hate having big money decisions to mule over for years (

 

Do you have an auto?

 

Yea 6spd auto

 

I would think being that we have automatics 3:73 gears would be fine for
F.I. lol.
