weight savings has a big influence as well guys.. keep that in mind..
didnt i read somewhere stock exh is like 55lbs or so? a single w/testpipe is going to drop a dick load of weight..

Im curious to see a long term test, like average mpg for 1000 miles with a cat and stock exhaust, then 1000 miles on a test pipe and high flow exhaust. I wonder how much the numbers would differ. I mean, I only get 20-21 mpg in my s. Main reason being is that everything is huge hills here. It is crazy, cars up here get an average of about 5 mpg less than most places where the terrain is a lot less hilly. That can probally be said for any hilly area though.

And an exact date of exhaust and testpipe installation (which was about a week apart).
You want me to post it up?
...and if so, whats the best way to post an excell spreadsheet on here

Pretty soon the mods will pay for themselves 
and do the occasional 120MPH sprint on my way home from work just to relax.
