Yep, mileage blows chunks. I've put 1 tank in and already know that!

What mileage are you getting? I'm getting 14mpg on the highway at 70mph - tires at 60psi F&R and 3.73 gears. City does suck - I can get 11-11.5 depending on how many lights catch me and how I accelerate away from stops. What mileage were you getting with the PSD and what was it in?
