Spartan built lq9 H/C/I A4 camaro get's 20.5 mpg Josh is truly an awesome builder. He takes his time and does it right the first time.
It basically has a brand new drivetrain. The engine is completely rebuilt, with l76 (same as ls3 style) heads, mild cam, ls3 intake, 90mm TB, corvette 85mm maf, 1 3/4 long tubes ORY and a dynomax 3in exhaust
trans is rebuilt, bigger pan, cooler, 3200 stall. the rear end was gone threw and a set of 3:73 gears installed.
I just got it back recently and have been putting some miles and a few burnouts. No lie.. i got 20 the first tank and 20.5 driving it literary like i stole it. No WOT runs or burn outs, needs some more parts to put the power to the ground. just rolling 50mph and hammering it, it gets lose. I'm so excited!!
josh's work, selection of parts and awesome tuning is top notch. well played sir

engine pic, dirty, which is my fault but.....
no other pics. no dyno numbers i don't know the cam specs
i originally didn't plan on doing dyno. He said it really needs tires and SF connectors to do WOT. So I hope to strap it to the dyno after tires and SFC's, just for *****.

BUT!! I was surprised to find out I'm logging 20+mpg with a built and stalled motor. Thats with playing around, running it pretty aggressive, stop and go and taking the long country back roads.
