I have been quite impressed with the overall mileage gains. Before Lucas I was averaging 6.8 - 7.5 litre per 100km. Mostly 416 driving with maybe 20% city driving. Now I'm getting 6.0 - 6.8 liter per 100km. Which is a very good increase. Yeah I drive like a granny on the straights but do carve corners hard. So save some fuel and try it. I'm sold....

Also be aware of excess foot on throttle pressure in sixth gear cruising. I'm amazed how much better mileage can be if you find the throttles sweet spot. This being the spot, just before any loss of momentum. I use the computer and Speedo to help my foot find the best throttle position for a given speed. This has saved me gas.

Anyway I better get back to work. So looking forward to meeting you local frsbrzers...
Welcome!

What body kit?
Are you coming out to the cruise tomorrow? See the post further up this page for more info... I think it is going on rain or shine at this point.
