In August I installed a Zabtec throttle body, K&N cold air intake and SCT tuner. The performance with either mpg or performance is amazing.

What I found is the mpg on the highway increased to around 11 ltr/100 km. not bad. But in the city, mileage actually decreased. I know to try and keep rpm's at 2000 or less but that is hard.



My concern is that I now notice the tailpipe has a lot more carbon on it. Never noticed that before.

Wind if it is running too rich? Thoughts?
