[02 dodge4x4 5.9]

well after all this trying an such it has finally happened but i be damned if i drive 64 mph everywere i go lol 475 miles on 26 gallons 18.269 @64 oh yea an that is 10k in weight
any way to go 75 an get this ? will a smarty help?

[Phooker]

tell your truck to lose weight. :banned: In a good way though. A smarty on fuel saver mode will help. but it will most likely be a little :homo: and not to awful peppy.

Propane injection will help milage, and save you even more money in fuel if you can afford to d*ck with the extra tank and crap. It will also give you a little more pep if you don't get real crazy with it.

I'm glad my old turbo is helpin' you out! That's one less thing in my shop to collect dust!

...and probably faster than 75.:poke:

[02 dodge4x4 5.9]

lol i hear ya think big time on a smarty if it will help ? if i put 150hp injectors in it i should get better if i dont abuse it you think?

[4x4dually]

Good luck with that, hot rod. I pulled my 125's and put in 150's last night and the whole trip to work I was "seeing what it would do". If you have it, you will USE it one way or another. I can't tell any diffence in the stage 4's and the 5's, but I'm sure it is there somewhere.

I only got 16.9mpg going to TS and back, making 3 passes down the strip on 35" 19.5's and 3.55's:D

Personally, turning those tires, I very happy:D:D

I can get a reliable 17.5-18 out of my truck empty, cruise set, stay on the highway....or at least I could, haven't checked it with the new ULSD. I feel pretty sure my mileage would match yours Chris.

Burner> Just ask David Lott :evil

Ben> Every time I have upgraded injectors overall mileage on the highway has not changed much atall. In town has ALWAYS taken a hit though, just can't seem to keep my foot out of it :bang

10-4 i know my stockers sux an i need a bigger injector after that im getting into the tranny with a new convertor an valvebody

[Burner]

......Always start with the tranny.

[02 dodge4x4 5.9]

yea thats what i hear but i only got 50k on the new one been told a few times get a 89% convertor an a good vb

[Burner]

If you pull heavy, (which I think you do) I'd get a Flex-plate as well. It's hell when the center rips out, not to mention a PIA.
