Hi,
I'd like to thank you all for the help in getting this hooked up. I was skeptical at first but after the install and without a tune up, I took her (Nissan Armada 2004 5.6L V8 , City 10mpg/Hwy14) out for a spin with my son. I filled up and reset all the trip meters to zero. I made a round trip of approximately 30 miles at 55 mph and every mile increase that showed on the trip meter, my son and I gave each other the “high five”. Keep in mind, that I’ve had this vehicle for three years and before, it never got over 14mpg on the highway. When we finally drove into the driveway we were showing an average of 19.2 mpg. That's a whooping 37% improvement over stock. During city driving today it fluctuated between 15.5 and 17.5 mpg this also corresponds to a 40% improvement in efficiency over stock city mileage. My reservoir is over 50% full. When I filled up, the computer calculated 382 miles to empty, I figure that based on a 40% improvement in mileage, I should get close to 535 miles. I'm still in testing phase and can't wait to see how far I'll get on one tank full. After another run, we got up to 21.2mpg highway and it keeps getting better and better. I made another round trip of 95.2 miles at 70 mph cruise control speed. I arrived at the same fill up station with the computer reading an average "18.1mph". Stay tuned.Totally Shocked,
F. M., New Mexico
