Message	I got a pretty tyte system in my car. Well more than 800 watts. I'm also playing it so goddamn loud all the time. I've also been noticing bad gas mileage recently. I was wondering how much power a system would sap from your car, and if this would be reflected in your gas mileage. Would it be negligible? Or would it would be noticeable? Any other ideas about how to help gas mileage would be great. I'm only getting 220 or so miles per gallon (terrible!). Thanks for any ideas....
