when i do my LS1 swap will i get better miles per gallon with it than i get with my 305?

 

its 2 generations newer with sequential fuel injection so probably.. 6 speeds can get upper 30s on the highway

 

You will see probably 26-28mpg, upper 30's highly doubtful even with a 6-speed. I was getting 25 out of my LT1 with 6-speed and 3.42 gears.

 

whoops.. i meant 20s..

my friend has hit 40mpg on a 400 mile trip with his 99 ws6 and platinum injection.. hella sick..

 

so seems like thats an updgrade from my 305

 

40 mpg??!!! Thats as good as the best I've been able to pull out of my neon! Would you mind explaining "platinum injection"?

 

I would assume he means platinum plugs?



and sorry, but I've gotta doubt 40mpg unless he was running 65 on the highyway the entire tank. and even then, I can't see it getting 40. 35 maybe.

 

its a little company his dad runs and sells the stuff.. its a canadian product .. platinum vapor injection.. it runs some little drip thing into the intake..

he filled it up before we went to a car show.. drove there.. drove back.. (500kms) ~320 miles.. filled up with like 30L (~8 galls) which would be 40mpg.. and he did it solid all the time when he went home, pretty picky about his cars, it also got way better mileage then his grand am or cavalier

he does drive like a total bitch at 60mph tho.. 6 speed and 3.42s rev at nothing

the longer you drive them on the highway the better it gets too it seems on the longer trips my friends have taken to bowlin green they say the mileage gets progressively better, smart little peices of aluminum

 

a drip thing into the intake?


sounds like snake oil to me.

 

any contact info on this "platinum injection? website?
