Talking 89 Dodge Ram Diesel....27mpg!!

Ok, so my cool ecomodder driving technique was to go 65mph with the window rolled all the way down and my arm resting on the window sill. And the test was only over 200 miles.....so in short, don't take this one too seriously First fill was 27.7mpg, and second fill was 26.2mpg, and the second fill included going up and over a 4,000ft, 5% grade. Truck has gotten 27mpg before on a 500 mile test, I just wanted to see what it did with the bigger injectors in it.

I also attached a dyno sheet of my latest runs. The first was a test run at 35psi of boost and no nitrous, and the second was at 60psi and two stages. Hope you guys enjoy it!!
