ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

      because you're flooring it all the time now i'm thinking. drive normally and it should go UP by 2-3 mpg.

            You maybe driving like a maniac like losiracer2 said.

            If you think you lost mpg , it's all in your driving habits or in your head.

                yeah so far with the intake, spark plug change and an oil change my mileage is good, almost 100 miles and it's just a little below full. The gauge seems fairly linear too, i wonder when ill run it out Just remember, apply the gas as gradually as possible, and brake as little as possible, i.e. not abruptly and your mileage improves. It does make you look like a grandma, but its money in your pocket

                        It's the adrenalin that you want to hear the intake noise.

                          the novelty of having the noise their will wear off after a bit... my buddy was doing the same thing with his civic... he would floor it to 50km just because he liked the noise it made and thats what effecting the mpg.

                            but once that wears off you get an exhaust and you start all over again
