Fuel Efficiency/Im Freakin Out!!!

[JD74]

I would love to get a dyno tune, I am running an ADR (Auto dream tune) with a socketed ECU. I get the odd pop out the exhaust now and again. I bet it could be leaner and still safe :P Will anyone dyno tune a car on socketed ECUs? lol

Stinky will.....you just have to find him now.
He was going to do my GT-R with a Consult before I decided to get my PowerFC.

I have to get a stinky chip for the daily sometime soon. Fuel econ apparently jumps considerably.

Cheap too. I found him on beyond
he will always recommend the level 4
most power and good f/e while still using factory safety systems

Yeah but he has never done a GT-R. I know him pretty well. No problem getting a hold of him. Bet I could get one installed today but I don't wanna be the 1st.

Try! if it blows the car up, then you have a reason to make a 600hp build like everyone else and do up a like feedback report about it. Kinda like me and the pulseplugs which no one else wants to try.

:P I was kinda hoping it would just last forever on it's own

I think we told you about those pulse plugs

He promised me that he has a VERY SAFE base tune to work with, then simply 'road' tune it to clean it up with you driving and him in the psgr seat....

It sounded good to me at the time, but I was waiting for my PowerFC to come in and get it done, so we never had a chance to hook up.

Ask yourself this; How many RB20's did he blow up ? then decide.....
Unless I am unaware of his track record or something...lol

...and while I'm in this thread.....

Fill up today: 1.39/L 91oct.....OUCH.....freakin'....OUCH.

I always fill up at the same FastGas in Calgary (Dover) because it's teh cheapest and I have NEVER had a problem with their fuel in any vehicle. It seems that every time I get 'adventerous' and try Mohawk 94oct the car runs like ****......

[Velders]

Thats because Mohawk is crap, Chevron 94 ftw. Except its $1.55 here.

It's Fort Mac.....it's to be expected. Everyone there makes a TON of $$ and the City and surrounding areas try to get back every cent of it....lol

If gas hits $1.50 here in Calgary, I will cry, because I will be driving my Wife's '07 Aveo5 1.6l....lol

why is mohawk crap? Or what makes chevron better?

[GTS4tw]

why is mohawk crap? Or what makes chevron better?

Mohawk adds Ethanol which screws with older model injectors, as far as I know Chevron hasnt caught up with that and has no ethanol or much less.

I guess I shouldnt say that it is crap, but from my personal experience Chevron is much better fuel, I have tested both and my car ran much cleaner and more consistantly on the Chevron.

I am getting about 600km per 60-65L fill. ($85-$95 to fill now)

I warm the car up for ~5 minutes EVERY TIME even now in the summer

I think this helps with MPG, I've noticed the car runs almost no timing advance until the engine is warmer than 60C = really horrible fuel milage driving it when cold.
