Have quite a bit of mileage on the swap now....maybe 800 or so, and I didn't pay much attention to gas mileage for the first couple tanks since there was still alot of fine tuning to do. Tracked my last tank very closely. It included a couple trips to the office, a few local runs, and one trip into the North GA mountains just to see how it pulled on long hills, etc. Ended up at 17.3 MPG with A/C on some of the time. Not awful, but I had it much better before N/A with fuel injection. Still pig rich (sub 11 AFR's) once I go above 3500 rpm but takes time to adjust up there slowly. I think I can probably get it to the 20 mpg cumulative range once I'm done. It's also turning pretty heavy wheels and tires so I guess 17.3 isn't too shabby. Had some stereo equipment sitting in the garage from a past vehicle that I wired in for giggles so a couple hundred extra lbs too. A Gen1 with competition quality sound is pretty funny...gets a chuckle from everyone.

On another note it's been a BLAST to drive even at 5 psi of boost. Whole different animal. Downshifts never required on the road anymore and it'll wrap the speedo. Only one hiccup since I got it running and it was for a split second when the tank was low....I think I just picked up some air.

Oh yea....the most important part. No leaks...knock wood!!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
