Message	Had a girl ask me last night the ol' "does a cold air really reduce your mileage?" After explaining the reduction in restriction, but increase in available power affecting mileage, I got to wondering how far that goes. A Dual POP setup reduces restriction, Massives and 2.5" piping have enabled stock turbos to do things that a few years ago were thought impossible with stock turbos. I know messing with cams affects [normal driving] efficiency negatively because they target a narrower performance envelope to increase gains there. I know we tune our cars for performance, not mileage, but it would be interesting to see what mods help rather than hurt mileage. Has anyone put a highway tank through their breathered/exhausted stock turbo Z? -Dan VTC Solenoid Caps and install instructions.
