LOL - the 30MPG thing was a joke. If it ever gets there, it probably won't be on gasoline.

I'm just gonna work on it so that my profit margin while using the truck as a truck (hauling stuff for people, etc) is higher.

The better my mileage is, the more money I make in profit that doesn't have to be spent as fuel expenses.

You'll love this - I have to do the exhaust, so I'm probably going to put a turbo muffler on it.

For the intake, I'm going to use my heater core idea in the filter box and see if I can make it work. I'm not too sure about the variable control circuit, or how to build it, but I'm sure someone on here can help with that.

As I do actual work on it, maybe I'll detail each part in it's own thread, and add links and a summary to this thread for reference.
