Re: How many miles to full tank?? My mod'ed LT1 T56 used to get easily 400 miles per tank (on a trip from San Diego).
My lightly mod'ed SS with a loose converter gets upto 330 miles per tank on a regular basis. But I have seen upto 345 miles per tank full on a trip to Texas. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: How many miles to full tank?? How in the heck are you guys hitting 300-400 miles to a full tank? I have an A4 and i baby my car, and do LOTS of hwy driving...and on a good day, i can barely hit 280 with 1/8 of a tank left...
i did notice however, after i installed the SLP Bellow, my gas mileage got worse. Instead of hitting 180 to half tank, im doing 160, can anybody explain? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Re: How many miles to full tank?? When I had the 6-speed, when I was cam only I would hit 30mpg's on the highway all the time and usually get around 350 to a tank...
Now with the TH400, I get about 150 miles per tank... <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

Re: How many miles to full tank?? My absolute best has been 350 miles.. This was a freeway trip down to LA. But the cruise control got set anywhere from 75-115 on the way down..
Typically it is between 280-315 freeway, 225-250 in town.
M6
