UTwrestler22 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The injectors don't change how the odometer works or how many gallons fit into the tank. If he goes 400 miles, and puts in 16 gallons he has to have gotten 25mpg. All the injector will do is show a false reading on the little display in the car. That's not the only way to figure out the gas mileage. Seems like a pretty simple concept haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCGT Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 update, im starting the rebuild this week probably tomorrow. looking for someone to re tune my vehicle for this 91 oct piss water they call gas in arizona. AZ gas is terrible. That said, you have a few places around PHX with E85, which I promise you your car will like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strizzy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I'm on my fifth, if I include the stock motor that came with the car. My inadequate fueling blew up my last one. I have an idea of how you feel. My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmorris6689 Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Yeah it's no fun, my last two motors blew due to a crappy build for a shop I will not mention. That's why I'm building this one on my own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmorris6689 Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 From the looks of it you got it, Im still struggling to finish my motor so I can atleast have a car again. Riding a bicycle is getting real old after a year and some time of not having a car. But I'm going to try and get a 10 second pass with the current turbo. If I can't get it with that ill just save up and go rotated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
