After my 350z Tube/Popcharger upgrade>>

my MPG now sucks. I was normally getting 19-20mpg, now I am getting 15-16mpg. WTF. Besides that I love the sound and the extra butt HP of the 350z Tube/Popcharger combo. I still drive at the same speeds before and after the install.

more air = more fuel

Usually your right foot makes the biggest difference though.
During a track day I'll run through a full tank and get single digit mpg, where it's normally 30+mpg with my mixed city and highway driving during the week.

30MPG WOW That's amazing. Well to me, I don't care at all about MPG, if my car want's more gas, so be it. Nice upgrades, keep us posted.

Thanks - Joey Avino

Sorry, different car. I was just using mine as an example on how Highway/city driving varies drastically from track driven miles. My right foot makes a HUGE difference as far as gas mileage goes....
