i have been checking my mpg every time i fill up. I drive mostly city and my camaro gets 22 mpg every time. When I go all high way i am between 28 to 30. As far as I can tell so far all i have is a magnaflow muffler. but maybe there is more done to it that I dont know.

2000 Camaro V6

So... it's indeed possible, but just takes a lot of work?

its easy, drive normal. if your car is getting less then what youre seeing here, do a tune up. and if its still not good enough, get a honda.

Could try this http://www.fitchfuelcatalyst.com/pro...uto/index.html as seen on Horse Power TV
