Hey you all KLZE owners, how much miles per gallon do you get?

I seem to be getting around 350km to the tank, and i'm driving like jackass still. I can't keep my foot off the gas with all this new power. Not sure what that is in miles per gallon, but its around 9km/L which isn't amazing. But not too bad considering how I've been driving.

You must be running very rich. Do you notice a lot of black smoke?

I get 33 MPG freeway, and about 27 mixed.

I have the car lowered, and cruise at about 67. The engine is freshly rebuilt, and I use about 1.5 oz. Acetone per tank. It has a straight neck, and is chipped for it. Also, I keep it tuned, and change the oil & filter about every 2,500, with A NAPA gold filter for the Corvette ZR1, and Royal Purple oil. It has a CAI, with K&N cone filter (the kind that has 2 gauze surfaces, 1 inside the end), and 2.5" exhaust.

It's pretty easy. Just remove one injector o-ring... preferrably cyl. 1

and this will happen :D
