mpg question
i am currently getting 24 mpg in my 89 lx coupe with BBK 70mm tb, long tubes, H pipe, billet underdrive pulleys, k&n filter, taylor wires and super 40's, my question is if i put an electric fan, electricwater pump and a 5-6 psi s/cwill my mpg's increaseat all?
Thanks.

RE: mpg question
With a blower you have the option of staying out of the throttle which will not make the engine demand muchif anymore fuel then a non blown motor. Stay out of boost and you gotdecent mileage. But when ya got the power on hand staying out of it is much easier said then done. You may find yourself passing more cars then normal.
