I keep a big piggy bank in my office at home. When I get done at work, I throw any change I have into it. At the end of a year or so, I have a couple hundred dollars extra to spend on mods. Try that. Or you could try switching to Geico.

Or make friends with someone who has one and then try to talk them into getting a FAST 90.
I have one off of my CTS-V that I was gonna sell to a guy for $250 but one of his buddies just gave him one. I have since decided to keep mine a for a future project, so you don't have to ask.

Is that 180-190 miles more? or miles per tank? I have a 99 and my gauges reset pretty much everytime I crank my car. So i really have'nt ever kept up with how many miles i get per tank.

I found one on a different forum for $370 brand new with all the sensors and gaskets. I installed it 2 weeks ago along with a ported TB and am very pleased with the results. I can feel a difference at about 5k and up.

Just get the LS6 or Fast 90. Those are the 2 best from what I understand.

the same really, and it all depends on your other mods you have done to the car . . . if i could've found a lingenfelter manifold for the same price of mine i would've gotten one instead, get on and port it for really good breathing

Do you drive mostly on the highway? I get that kind of gas mileage only on long highway trips cruising at 80-85 but around town it drops to about 220 miles per tank. I have a cam and full-boltons for refence and an M6. I'm thinking of swapping an LS6 for LS1 intake myself. I think the power gain would be about the same with the all the mods on my car... around 20whp or so.

93 transam, your gas mileage is just like mine man, mostly around town and suburbs driving. i got at the most when was constantly in 6th gear driving like grandmas do, 275, but usually 220-240, by the way when someone says they are going "WOT" what does this mean, lol ive been a member for awhile and never understood it
