Last tank was 442.4 miles with 10.648 for a decent 41.55MPG This tank had No wheel covers, no grill block, no belly pan, I took three trips into the city. And many short trips. Weather is getting colder. So not bad not bad. I know how to drive this car now!

Seafoam in the last 2-3 gallons. I also hit the redline in every gear at WOT. New top speed of 107 mph!!. Tested on private property. !!

this tank was also 50-65 P&G for the highway portion of my trips. And the scangauge is telling me 41.1 mpg so it seems it is dialed in and very accurate!

Next tank will be colder temps, a new home with terrible parking, a new route to everywhere, and a shorter trip.

Unfortunately I am still in the process of moving and am very busy with work all at the same time!

so aeromodding my KIA has taken a backseat yet again. Not to mention my grandfather has bought a 81' el Camino he is fixing up for a winter beater and keeps asking for help with it.

Gotta snap a picture of the factory airdam on the 81'
