Ultra, could be the time of the year too. My milage just shot up 8MPG because they switched the gas here to Non Oxygenated again.

Ask at the gas station or check the emissions laws.

yea.. when they went to the oxygenated stuff here.. EVERYONE"S Milage suffered. Enough people complained about getting sick from the fumes too that they stopped offering it for a while.

Personally, I do not know what they were complaining about. Not like you can pump your own gas here in NJ anyway. Full service is the LAW... and we are still cheaper than a lot of states.

CAI on some cars increase gas milage... just gotta control yourself and not floor it. But it sure does make one helluva lovely sound like a banchee screaming out of hell when you rev that suxor to the red.

Yea love the sound
Basically anything that reduces stress on the engine will increase gas milage such as light weight wheels or in take and exhaust
