broke into the 14's....mpgs anyway

When I went from the mpg tune to the performance tune, I got better mileage but that might be due to the ethanol in the gas around here

are you going for something like I had?

macmongrel · Feb 7, 2012

HA I have a lead foot...I haven't seen better than 12...I am mostly in town though...but I hang right around 10Mpg

sorta, I was either gonna try to rig something up like the Volant intake, have you seen it? it's enclosed and plugs into the fender like the stock intake, then it's made with a spout type thing in front so you can attach a hose or just a cap. they sell a funnel but it's like 65 bucks, I think I'd make my own. in either thinking of trying to somehow enclose my K&N or just shelling out for the Volant

I guess I'll order a SCT...I find the claims of 18 to be a bit "exceptional" since I have a 5 inch lift and 33's myself.

Would love to know the mods and details on how this is achieved...

MPGs on the hwy are never over 13.

My last tank...most of which was in town with little stretches of interstate was 10.2

My Ram gets between 8 and 10 in city and on my last trip from indiana to kansas i got 12.5 100% interstate. It sucks.

If I had stock tires I might be getting even better but yeah for our engine I think 14 is pretty good.

It is hella good. On my SC 87 tune I was getting 12 or so. Running tow tune with 87 and I get 13.5 I know ur not supposed to run 87 but it only has issues if I push it hard. Ill try 93 on performance next see what I get

correct sir, and I was just gonna make my own tube. for me I feel like I mind as well switch if I can sell my k&n b/c what I get for the k&n I can get the Volant and pretty much break even minus the tubing.
