look there is a math to gas mpg and race whp


more hp means less gas

if you have 500 hp you will probably get about 12 mpg's

now if you have 90 hp you will probably get like 30 mpg

500 hp is made when your engine reaches 30,000 rpm... some remove you rrev limiter some move the rev limiter. i've heard of someone thinking they got a air to fuel ratio one installed in a chiped ecu to give you an extra 20whp. the engine blew the next day ( no sweet idea how they ****ed it up that badly) sadly that chiped ecu went flying...

save your money seriously. they don't work. if they did why wouldn't they be in the car from factory? why isn't gm using this to sell there tin cans?
