We shall see.
The PO said he would get 40-44 mpg out of it, but it is not in great condition. I can even tell that it has been off road with the mud and leaves underneath! Hopefully I can get it to 50+ mpg just by fixing the stuff on it. I drained the ATF yesterday and the fluid is very dirty. I will get to the filter today or tomorrow. The EGR and turbo both seem to have issues, which are probably adversely affecting mpg.
Since I will be tearing the engine out eventually for a project, I don't mind doing lots of permanent aero modifications for fun. Right now I have an upper grill block, side skirts, and a rear box cavity planned.
