Awesome thread!!

I have a 93 metro that I have done a few mods to including all pressed 18 gauge galvanized metal , kammback,grille block, mirror deletes, fender skirts ,and I have done wiper delete on passenger side. I have also went to 15 inch spare tire rims with firestone f560 tires at 45psi. I am on the first tank with the new tires so we will see how it goes. They are 2.4 inches taller Than factory and come out to a 11.2% difference. I have the xfi cam to install, but i wanted to see how the original stacked up. So far you have to be careful not to lug the engine, and i know that with the xfi cam it will bring the torque down lower in the rpms so it will make up for the taller tire. What's next for better fuel economy guys? Oh I am a new member here and so far am loving it....
