lol maybe cuz you're flooring it a lot more? People say that a lot after modding their cars. "ITS WAY FASTER, BUT IT SUCKS DOWN GAS". Well, to find out it was was faster, you probably had to beat on it. And the fun of beating on a car with a new mod doesnt die down for a while. Your A/F ratios shouldnt have changed much. My B16 got pretty much the same gas mileage with the manifold as without after i got over the novelty of digging on the cool noises at 8500 rpm lol.
