If I'm going on a 1300 mile road trip all highway could I unhook the charge pipe to throttle body? and retune it without the boost? If so would I get a noticeable difference in fuel mileage

 

unless you are speed density the engine wont run, also I don't think you will gain anything by trying to bypass the turbo, your not boosting when cruising anyways.

 

No. Leave your car alone

 

Wtf?

 

Alright I won't even try then. Just figured it would be like a regular 4 cylinder then. But if I have a car try to race me on the interstate I wouldn't be able too. So there for I'm leaving the turbo hooked up lol

 

even if you did rig the maf to the throttle body to run you would kill your turbo,

 

Makes sense. Guess ill have to stick to 200 miles a tank or so. But what the hell nobody buys an evo for gas mileage anyways

 

i used to pull 360 miles per tank when i was closer to stock... with a proper tune the evo isn't bad on gas...

now i get 120miles to about 10-10.5 gallons...

 

On gas I get 28.5mpg on my 2.3l with 272 cams on the freeway.

 

It's all in the tune.

 

Stop "racing" people on the highway. Your fuel economy will probably be much better.

 

lol i thought of this way before i got an evo...i like your thought process

 

you should be getting at least 300 miles a tank if you're not running obscene amounts of power. if you aren't, you're driving like a total *** on the freeway

 

notsureifsrs?

 

Wtf! This is a joke right ?
