Lol.

Its surprisingly around the same as before, and as the miles rack up its been getting better, even on the shitty winter blend.

This morning I put just under 15 gallons in with ~380 miles on the tank. So thats about 25mpg. Now that its broken in though, theres really no difference in my driving style vs. pre-build. When I dropped the car off, Paul said that my valves sounded horrible, so that probably has alot to do with my previous mpg numbers.

Delete your signature and copy this in it instead (take the space out between the CE and N):

Ive got a 2 car garage, but its filled with other projects.

I dont drive the CL during the storm, and most of the time I won't drive it until they clear the roads. My car is filthy due to all the water and shit being kicked up by other cars.

I got on her in second today, and broke traction It was fun and as much as I love the LSD, tq steer is a bitch. I can't wait for warmer weather so I can run some stickier tires.

Im at 3k miles (just broke 107k on the chassis) so only 500 more miles until I get on the dyno as long as I get to Pauls sometime before then for some more work. If I can't get up there before 3500 miles Im going to postpone the dyno run.

Theres a noticable gurgle when you let off the gas that I didnt hear before. The tone is a bit more coarse though, but not in a bad way.
