Signature test...

Edit: Sweet it worked, got the gas mileage tag in my signature.

I found a used ultragauge for sale, if the seller emails me back and still has it I will be picking it up. With some instrumentation I can hopefully get some better test numbers and tweak the nut behind the wheel a little more! Although I don't know how much room there is left for improvement in my driving.

none the less an UG can help in many other ways. Apart from using it for driving I also have used it to diagnose my cars trouble code, although I know what the code was the code could stand for 5 different problems and it allowed me to figure out which of those 5 was the problem now i just have to replace that pesky sensor. I just use it for avg mpg anymore because i can feel out what 80pct load feels like now after using the gauge for a couple months i think its about time to get a little more advanced with what gauges to use

Theres always an improvement somewhere to be made. just depends on if your satisfied with where you are now

[2000neon]

Thats true, I'm sure I will be able to find some improvement still. I think that what I would really like is to be able to gather data for individual trips, instead of just full tank data.

Few little updates.
First, I extended my rear wheel skirts down a little bit farther. I also tweaked the rear of the kammback a little bit. I lowered the mid section by 1", and the rear by 1.25".




Then I did a little bit of work under the car, extended the rear section of the bellypan and incorporated a diffuser.



Then I decided that the car needs a little branding, so here is my updated upper grill block (In hindsight, maybe I shouldn't have used a clear coat, bit too shiny).

Looks good

How's the fuel economy compared to pre-Kammback? Any noticeable difference? (Tank-to-tank isn't the best way to measure, of course.)

I see your latest fill was best so far - by a hair - in your fuel log.

EDIT: I just remembered you posted about a 45.9 tank earlier in the summer... http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...tml#post308866

That tank was not the best to date, but given the conditions (cold, rainy, and city driving), I am happy with it.

Also, picking up an ultragauge on wednesday.
