Ya it really woke it up LOL. Headers and ORY would really help it breath. Hopefully in the next couple months I can make that happen.

If I stay out of boost and drive like an old man it actually does pretty good. I drove VERY nice from my parents place to my house today which was stop and go traffic mixed with some hwy (about 10 miles total) and this was the result. Now if I get into it I am down around 12-13 MPG lol.

Not sure what a long trip on the HWY will do. Plus this is **** winter blend fuel.

Just imagine there is a full glass of water sitting on your dash and your whole goal is to not spill it while driving. Sounds corny but works.

Also according to your sig you have 33" tires which is not going to help you at all

haha you have no idea how hard it is for me to drive a vehicle and not want to get into it. It was only a 10 mile drive but it was from the middle of wasilla to my place off KGB and the entire time I keep telling myself to slow down and take it easy.

So while im sure I could get decent millage i doubt I will ever see it with my driving habits.

You've ridden with me. That's pretty much my driving style 24/7.
