If I upgrade my Talon with everything up to lvl 8 on extrememotorsports with a big 16G turbo what would the HP range be for the most part? I am wondering because I'm not looking to race my car or get sponsored or anything like that but just give it more HP and I need to know before I put a lot of money into so that I don't get like 500HP and 10MPG, cause that would be bad for me right now. If most of you guys get real low MPG then should I just upgrade somethings instead of everything to get a little more HP but ok gas mileage. I don't want to have to buy 10 gallons of premium every other day if I go to work.

hmm.. everything up to stage 8 if im not mistaken is just all the basic addons to the car with a Big16G figure to be around 300 at the wheels give or take some depending on the amount of boost you run..

Also gas mileage has ALOT to do with if you jump on it or not

why the hell would you even buy that from extreme $$$$ anyway?

For the record...

My car got 27mpg on the last tank.

The lil girl also runs low 12's consistantly @ 111+

If you know how to tune your fuel PROPERLY, you should note better MPG over stock.

That’s very impressive. I never seem to get anywhere near that. It seems as if every time I take a highway trip where I might have a chance to get some good mileage I see these things called on/off ramps. It seems to be my mission in life to wind out the gears when merging. Its almost like and obsessive compulsive disorder. Does anyone else here enjoy passing cars while merging?

Well when I shift at 3500 all day I get good mpg. But well that never happens..

When an O2 sensor goes, does it throw a code to make the check engine light come on??? Just for future reference.. I think i'm running extremely rich right now also.

We'll see, I need to make sure it's the O2 first..... honestly ever since I screwed up my tranny I havn't been too concerend with how well the car runs, I've been putting off "projects" right and left... such as:

I have installed, but for 2 weeks now havn't bothered programming the HKS EVC

Havn't taken the laptop out of the house and connected it to the car to see if the o2s cycle all the time or not.

I'll prolly burn off this tank of gas and fill up again to see what happens, if it improves or not.
