Yeah, gas prices suck, but theres not much we can do so I try not to let it affect my life so much. I figure if I'm making life decisions at the pump then I'm probably not making the correct ones elsewhere in life.

I don't drive the vette as much though due to the horrible mileage around town so that sucks on nice sunny days like today!

 

Me too,she drives a Civic so gas mileage is amazing compared to my car.I had my 550s layed out the other night,i was going to ditch the 750s and stick a screwdriver in the turbo so it couldnt spoolLolz

 

35+ gallons a week... 6,000 lbs, 5.4L, 3.73 gears.

You have no reason to cry.

 

2.85 a gallon here .

 

 

He's running E85; don't worry, it's a trade off when it comes to gas mileage.




OP - how is this a life decision now?

 

It's not really a trade off when I pay the same overall for the mileage I drive as you do for crappy 93oct . 105+ octane + alcohol injection that blows any alky kit away ftw! Aren't you the one who just a moment ago said you'd pay for 7 dollar a gallon 110octane leaded fuel? Oooh burn...

 

Not when I can simply run meth injection....why bother with alky?

However,
My goal is not to be the fastest on the street or strip, I prefer convenience over power...so i'll stick to 93 at any local pump + meth (110), over hunting for or ordering E85 and running alky.

Please show me where I said 110 leaded? You think i'd run Cam 2 in my car? Sorry, but its not a DSM...

 

You'll never come close with meth injection to what E85 does. Not to mention the failure modes of meth injection are out the ass. I have yet to see one single meth injection system that truly impressed me, most of them are so chock full of potential engine failures it isn't even real. Even the nice ones are about one half step above a carbeurator setup, and they are assembled far worse. Aquamist makes a good attempt at making a solid system, and yet even their kits have enormous flaws. If you consider convenience relying on a jet that has absolutely no monitoring to it, has solenoids that can easily fail, lines that easily can come loose or break, and a small resevior that you are constantly refilling just like I would my gas tank, then I don't know what to tell ya bud.

 

Guess I'm imagining things?
