Default WOW! Gas mileage WAY up after header/spark plug install

I was running 60k mile stock plugs and a Chokemaster muffler on my TA. I had a nonsponsor swap in some Pacesetters, a Hooker CB, and new plugs. I drive the same 48 mile round trip to work everyday and when I used to get home on Friday night I would barely be above "E" sometimes I would have to stop and get a few $$ on Friday morning just to make it home. Well after the above installs I have now made it home for 5 consecutive weeks with AT LEAST a 1/4 tank of gas, one time I had above a 1/4 tank. I don't know if it's all the plugs or maybe the freer flowing exhaust but man am I happy. 1 week Ok fluke, 2 weeks maybe a fluke, but 5 weeks in a row means my car is doing something better
