Gas millege for you stroker guys
Just wondering what you guys get with your stroker setup. On my 7bolt i got arond 21mpg and now with my stoker setup i get 18mgp  and im not even on it? Is this normal? Maybe cause i have a pte 50trim and its just spooling fast... what do you guys think...

I now get 25MPG on my 2.3L A/T with a 16G turbo.
Before the stroker project it was about 21MPG.

Why would larger injectors make your mileage worse? Your ecu controles them and doesn't inject any more fuel than needed.
On that note. Are you sure you don't push the air pedal harder/more?

Just double check everything. BOOST LEAK TEST, spark plugs, airfilter, timing, etc. I've got worse gas mileage going to a bigger turbo.

Yea first thing i did was boost leak test that was fine. For some reason the dyno place replaced my BPR7es with BR7es, i dont know if that would matter its gapped at .28. K&N filter is brand new.. heres a log if that helps...

Your long term fuel trim values show rich. You low value shows 11% undercorrection. With your mid off about 3%, that tells me the deadtime isn't spot on. This can affect fuel mileage if the ecu isn't correcting enough. Still, would this have that much effect in your case? I don't know.

±3% is fine. If your mileage is that low after adjusting to this and you don't smell any gasoline leaks, then I would just look at your driving habits.

I'm rocking 28.4 on the highway and 26.1 in town. Gotta love the 2.3 with T25.
