Okay, I have had my car for two years and have had bad gas mileage the entire time. The worst I got was 11mpg, the best was 14.5mpg. I usually get low 14mpg, until I installed my street edge converter. After that it went up to 16.9 (i had calculated it wrong and thought it was 19mpg). That was 1/2 hwy/city.
Well, I filled it up yesterday and got 14.2mpg. I was going easy on it the entire time except for two times. Things I have done.....
New TQ converter, this helped performance alot
Plugs, Wires, Cap, Rotor
Air Filter, fuel filter
gutted cats
seafoamed
one new o2
cleaned Maf, this helped performace some
I am happy with the way it performs, but not with the gas mileage. With my mpg, I feel like I should have a 400+hp car, not near stock. I want to figure out what my cars problem is before I start modding. I have read that my problem could be fuel injectors or MAF. I don't want to buy new 19lb injectors (or whatever is stock) and a stock maf then have to change it when I do mod.
Anybody got any ideas of what I should try?
