For instance, I could run about 450 miles (tops) with my current driving tech/mods/routes on the full 8 gallon tank, netting around 55mpg or so. BUT, if I just ran 4 gallons worth of full and filled up, I was easily toping 60mpg.

Only run one gallon? Expect close to 70mpg! NO mods to tech, just running on the higher side of the tank, I believe, increases fuel pressure from the (always sorry) OEM Honda fuel pump, and I believe leads to more efficient fuel atomization.

Donkey, can you confirm my logic here?

Thanks for the underside pics! SICK set up !!!!
That explains why my tank seems to empty out faster after the halfway mark.

I have another question. Is this a good front lip for the lazy ecomodder?
