Alright some questions:
1)Will venting affect my gas milleage significantly?

2)After gunning the car for a while should if i run my car smoothly on the way home: 20 minute trip, never let the turbo spool up again, and take like 4 3 mintues stop lights at idle, when i get home will 1 minute be cool to let the turbo cool down? i have a 14b at 16 PSI.

3)what will help my gas milleage?? I am using like 1/4 in 3: second to 4th gear runs!! :mad: , FPR? S-AFC?? MAF TRANSALATOR?

4)20g or T3/T4 .50 trim??
