Tomorrow. I need to fix the damn valve cover breather, keeps poping off. I also need to buy a temp gauge (mine died[&o]) and fix an exhaust leak on the DP (getting the part next weekend I think)
Other than that I've been driving it all day and I've found out its still not getting the best gas mileage. But then again I was drive against the wind[&:]

I think my car's MPG has improved alot, on my drive to our new house with is like 20miles and I was going up hills and florring it a little bit.... I think i get like 18mpg now or around that. I didnt see that needle move as much. last time i drove 20 miles I used 1/4 of a tank. And I think i used about 18 of a tank
IDK what kinda mileage I get, but it doesn't seem ass good as the N/A. It take about a "tick" (87-93 owner know what I'm talking about) to drive 85km's (52.81miles) so... idk, whats your avg. for a tank of gas??? lol it looks like I can get 500 or so miles to a tank lol
Anyways I can live with that for now. But IDK how long lol

When I had my 93 convertible with a a4ld, it would only pull around 16 mpg so that's like 250 mi a tank. The convertibles are quite a bit heavier than a hatch though. [&:]

Your suppose to run 91 or higher. I'm running 87 because I have a PK1 computer (very rich fuel map) so I feel safe, plus I've taken a few degrees timing out, and the knock sensor is on. Once I find a good job I'll always be running 91 or higher
the reason i said 91 is because you said you dont have 93 octane
i run 97 octane with some octane booster and lemme tell you i save no gas lmao

Drove the car to school today. It did well but the transmission is eating (ok leaking) transmission fluid, so I need a new trans soon If I add fluid this one will last over winter
Ok, anyways.... Car it TONS of fun to drive even with only 8 (spiking to 10) PSI, very nice and good on gas. I would tell anyone who drives up hills to do this swap, great amount of HP and good gas mileage
