There not the besy on fuel but in all honesty that's the only thing I can fault with the car, the rest is awesome. Im going to get a flash tuner soon just one off the shelf, will this help with fuel?

Typically you'll be getting a LOT better mileage after you get it past the 12,000 - 15,000 mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
