Just thought I would do a quick post to show my improvements in fuel economy so far. Within the past few weeks, I've had a Flowmaster 40 installed, changed my spark plugs out to Halo Plugs, and installed an electric fan. I had been getting between 14 and 15 MPG with mostly driving in rush hour traffic in Atlanta. This last tank, I got 18 MPG in the same kind of driving. Not to bad for an OHV Most better response from the engine now too. I installed these in the order listed above. Didn't notice anything to big with the muffler, but did with the plugs, and then also with the e-fan. I didn't expect that much out of the plugs because I had just replaced my plugs with double platinum about 6 months ago, but these really made an improvement. (I tryed them because my dad had helped design them and he insisted I give them a try). I will be driving back up to school this weekend in Michigan, so I will post highway milage once I get there.
I'm not quite to the standards that alot of you on this site are, but I'm working my way there and not doing to bad considering I started with an OHV.
