Gas mileage has been brought up before. Just search for it and google a gallon to liter converter and plug the numbers in

my favourite converter for this purpose:

fyi, my fuel consumption in the mix is 12l/100km, that is about 20 mpg.
L03 stock, 700R4, 2.73 axle. only mod being HO-style cowl induction for now

I still have the stock coil and sparkplugwires dont loock new either.
EBL and the 2.73 are making it happen. Im using 98 octan with iridium plugs lately but I still ned to check if its making any difference.
