The tune put more air with the fuel and gave me better low end torque which is good for the city, and even the higher flow CAI gave be better mpg. Changing the plugs and wires (3 weeks ago) has resulted in better mpg without change my driving style. No
I just got my scangauge 3 days ago and just filled up, and it was my best tank 20.2 mpg. Having that display keeps my foot out of the throttle too hard when it's not necessary to maintain or gain slight speed.
And it being an automatic that torque converter, especially of that generation couoled with 1 less gear than the manual brother, does make quite a difference, but hey I've already seen results and that's with still giving the pony a little love when that light turns green on occasion.
