OK, what will test pipes do to my fuel economy?

Luv My G

 

u should get slightly better gas millage but that is asuming u are not flooring the car consently

 

Mine went down, but I can't stop laying into it to hear the growl over 3k rpm. I suspect once I cut it a break, the fuel economy will improve. My first mod and I LOVE IT!!!

The RX has left the building, I have been driving the G for about 6 weeks!!!!

 

What pipes are we talking about exactly?

Thanks - Joey Avino

 

We ar talking about the pipes between the exhaust manifolds and the exhaust system.They contain the CatCons for the G. They are called downpipes because they run from beside the engine to down underneath the car connetcing to the exhaust proper. Removing them is a big no no, emissions wise, however it's a relativly easy HP increase and increases the sound of the car some. I have read 15 HP increase and they cost somewhere in the 300-350 range.

Do you mean your mpg got better or worse?

Luv My G

 

Actually so far it (MPG) has remained the same, however I have been putting my foot in it more then usual. Once I stop that behavior, I expect it will improve some.

how are we doing on gas this week? How about the smell? I was told cars smell like skunks without the cats?

Luv My G

 

its just the smell of gas burning
pour some gas out somewhere and toss a match
smells like that, but its not very strong.
