TST vs. mileage

[mhrbek]

Hello Guys!



I want to get the TST power kit (torque plate #8) for my baby, but first i´d like to know what happens to my mileage?



50/50 city/highway

rpms mostly in the sweet zone 1500-1900

no towing no load (only some computer stuff)



I would be very happy if somebody could tell me his experience with the TST.



Thanks for you time!



greetings marcus

You can look at my mods and the great thing is, my mileage is still over 19 everyday driving. Some in town and some country.

Most all plate upgrades will result in better mileage but only if you can resist the thrill of it and keep your right foot light. Very hard to do when you can easily hit 90 mph while passing. I perfer the #11 plate.

i agree with bill. however, i am like you, i don't haul much except for *ss between florida and columbus. TST did my upgrade in their shop. they put in a #8.

let´s go

Thanks for your help!



My last little doubts are blown away, i´ll order the kit instantly to receive the fathers day 5% rebate.



So let the bombing begin!



Thanks Marcus

Be fore warned about milage,it will drop with the installation of a higher HP plate. But the milage will come back when YOU get your foot out of the throttle , enjoy the added power. My first few tanks had bad milage,came back when I removed my BIG foot.

My curiosity has gotten the better of me:

Please splain how adding more fueling capabilities contributes to MPG increase? (I can't keep my foot out of it long enough to observe the phenomenon )
