Maybe the DIC is deceiving me, but it says I'm getting 28 mpg, and I have a 3" pulley, before I was getting 29 mpg. The car is running extremely rich so I get the distinct impression a little tuning would help with my gas mileage, which I already can't complain about.

so for me I tend to get better MPG with the STG2 kit and a CAI as I believ the CAI is a must for the STG kits

... just think thru ur opinion a bit more and i think u'll get it.
it would make sense that a stage 2 tune is more efficient than stock tho. i kno my car runs REALLLLY rich right now
right on
or ur a punk kid that cant afford the parts on a budget, but you manage to pull it off :P

ok no i dont have to rethink my opinion because, its MY opinion. But if you sit back and think about wut i was sayin as opposed to just dismissing the idea and throwing ur own in (which u think is far more superior than mine), then ull realize that mine makes sense.
