Granny shifting on E10 with efans and CAI (with an occasional gun):



edited to add: normal driving before fans I was lucky to see 360 miles on an E10 tank. this friday im going to jump the border into GA and get stright 87 (no e10 crap) and see if i can reach 450 or even 500! might have to drop the spare and remove some weight...

 

I got ya beat there, Alex.......

 

NOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

How'd ya do that???

 

Filled up at the Mexican Water Trading Post in Teec Nos Pos AZ with 87 octane reservation gas. Drove through Shiprock NM and Farmington NM to Durango CO, spent the night and did a little driving around town. Went up through the Rockies through Alamosa and Walsenburg to La Junta CO. Picture taken in the Loves in La Junta before filling up. There were NO Interstate highways involved, I cruised at about 5 over the limit, cruise control wherever possible, went through several towns with traffic, and got 22.5 mpg.

 

 

WTF!!!!!!!! The most I have ever got on one tank was 409.7 when the light came on.

However, I did get ~175 miles on 1/4 (6.5-7 gals), which equals 25 or 26 MPG....I did have a tailwind of about 20 mph though...

 

My truck used to get 430 miles to a tank. I miss those days. Good thing I'm closer to work now.

 

Yeah, but don't you have a bigger tank?

 

I've managed 450 miles on a tank once or twice with almost no mods. I don't know how I did it, but I did it.

 

Yeah, I have done 450, but the light was on. This one was 420+ with it just under 1/4.

 

does anyone know if U/D pulleys help economy?

 

Yes, they do.

 

Less rotating mass which is the same premise as the efans.

 

awesome.

just left the gas station. results are in!














drum roll....









coming in with 23.4 gallons and a trip meter reading of 453.5 miles......

is 19.38 mpg on E10 gasohol with A/C city driving with the occasional punch!!!!!

 

Congrats man!
