This can't be "Only a V6!!"

MGW short throw and Amsoil Trans fluid change should hold me for awhile...
Trying to slow the mod addiction!

When you figure out how to do that. Please let me know. LOL

So looking into the vtc it looks like that can take away some mpg ( could easily be wrong). Are you expecting these mods to make you spend more on gas?

Just trying to make a point that there is always something bigger and badder like shamp said

Right, so what's the point of knocking someone else's pride and joy, like shamp chose to do?

[swagner]

I think people need to be negative about someone else's joys to make themselves feel better about theirs. Or better yet to make daddy proud and possibly say I love you son.

[shamp21]

I'll put my ole l99 up against any stock ls3 6 speed

Thanks Ghosted...
I love my V6
Didn't even look at a V8 for several reasons..
One of which was budget. I knew what I had in my budget for the car and this black LT was it.
I also like the 27+ mpg I get with the cruise set around 79mph.
Maybe i'll upgrade to a V8 on my next one, but for someone who hasn't had a nice car in a couple decades, I'm happy.

Can this be answered though. I average 20.3 mpg. Not exactly what I was told I'd be getting with my v6. but what could I expect with these mods? Because like you money is of importance for me and I'm just happy to have a nice car.

[Pete M]

I think the loss in mpg will be more likely caused by a heavier right foot.
I average 22-23 combined before the VTC...
Right now, with gas as cheap as it is its not an issue with me.
I'll know the mileage difference in a month or two when I make another road trip..
Right now, i'm enjoying a 3500lb car with a V6 that will spin the rear tires without breaking a sweat

May not be a problem now but unfortunately it will be eventually
