good question, i would like to know as well. im sure it is a lot worse just because there would be a tendency to "get on it" a little more with all that extra power. im sure that would ware off eventually and i would go back to diving granny style,... for the most part.

edit: i mean, USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION SUCKA!

Mine didn't change much after installing the 264/272 combo. It did get better after my Dynoflash though. My AFRs were in the 10s/9s after 5Krpm before the flash. Now I'm at 11.2 all the way to redline.

Running HKS 280s timed to give best midrange efficiency.

Steady 75-80mph cruise gives 29 mpg, or ~375mi/tank.

^ That is so amazing, I can't wait untill I get my 280s to run that setting and get that gas mileage. Maybe I can actually get home on one tank of gas.

ok...i do 95 percent of my driving on the highway.... between 75-80....whcih set of cams would benifit me on a day today bases driving 80miles to work and another 80 back. i can deal with spending 40 buck everyother day to fill up, not a prob. but i do want some power increases, i wont be going to the track every weekend or everyother weekend...maybe a once a month if that even. so should i just stick with the 264's i was planning on ordering or should i get the 272 or 280 set or a combo??? dont worry bout hurting my feelings i dont take anything to heart as long as u correct me and i learn something!!!!
