Well for atleast 5 months I have had problems with a SES light and bad mileage. I replaced a cat and switched out O2's... Nothing.... I have been getting 180 miles to a tank. Well yesterday I installed O2 simms and reset the PCM and ran through a full tank of gas. I am happy to say, that no SES light, increased performance and 240 miles to a tank or 51ltrs....... I am glad to be over that problem.... 60 freaking miles... woohooo

A little of both, but before it did not seem to matter what I was doing the mileage sucked.....

It's gonna do that with an aftermarket exhaust. Some just do it more than others.

Ok, I'm not really worried about it. I like going through tunnels!!

Good deal. Think that's my problem too? Won't really matter, I'm planning on putting LT's with them there O2 simms sometime this winter. Also there is a GP on those loudmouth catback systems at tbyrnemotorsports...

Hey Jack, mine popped with the stock exhaust. It's just more noticable with the Chambered exhaust. I like it. Especially if your somewhere that there are quite a few people and the car is cold. Then it sounds sweet and turns some heads.

I just have to be careful when leaving gates now, so they don't think they're being fired upon...

That could be a bad thing, especially with an M60 sitting ready to light you up!

Well ... always could use it to get more air to the engine ... those "speed holes" should help a little ... just like tiny ram-air ...

Too bad it'll be all over the car ... and anybody inside

Yes, Garry, and it would weigh less, too, as long as the fragments fall on the ground.

Dark Angel · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2001 7:13 pm

Just vacumn all the scap out. May get a little cold in the winter!

JackZ28 · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2001 11:32 pm

Well, for Winter you can always cover them with Vtec stickers, and put some Dynamatt underneat!!

Dark Angel · **Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2001 11:41 pm

Good idea, but that won't help for weight.

That's what 3 ft spoilers are for!! Duh! :-pat:

Yeah, you should know. That's how you got an SS spoiler the B@$stard!!

I just got done putting about 3 coats of red, and 6 coats of clearcoat, so we'll see how close it matches tomorrow. The paint looks really good, I'm impressed with my 'talent.'

Hey George what exactly was your fix?? Ws it just the O2 sims? I am also getting quite the crappy gas mileage! Can't get more than 140 mi on a tank!

Jr · **Posted:** Tue Nov 13, 2001 9:15 am

I wonder if those will fix my problem.... I think I am running a little rich as well...
