Question on cat's

[bruce95fmla]

I am praying that when I put the turbo on, it will shut this damn BP up.
These BP's are so frigin loud, especially when you have more than 3 people in the car or you have been romping in 5000+ rpm land.

I am thinking about putting another resonator on the car.

lol, mine isn't that loud, but then again mine is the original engine, not a swap. . . I love the sound in the 3-5K rpm range, soooooooooooo sexy

[bruce95fmla]

Yeah it is very throaty.. I love it also. But it's the trying to cruise moan that gets to you afterwards.


funny thing, if I drive smooth everywhere I go. Shifting at about 2.5k the muffler is super quiet.

Hey how many miles have you gotten out of a full tank?

[95ProLeila]

uh, not sure. Going to Columbus (about 125mi) is about half a tank cruising at an avg of 70 mph

[bruce95fmla]

damn so you mean to tell me this gas mileage is correct. Holly crap.
I am getting about 130 to 150 a half tank.

[95ProLeila]

That sounds about right, its not that bad, what does the 1.5 net?

[bruce95fmla]

The 1.5 will get close to 370 to a full tank on smaller wheels. With 16 inch wheels about 320.

damn. . . oh well, I'm still gettin better mileage than most of the. . . things out there on the road.

[Intruder]

How much were you getting on the Z5, Bruce? I get about 225-240 miles from a full tank.

[bruce95fmla]

I was getting 320 minimum in my 1.5L
