RE: Fuel mileage
I need a turbo actuator but I can’t see that changing things drastically. Time will tell.

I started playing around with changing the revolutions per mile today to make up for the shorter tires. According to the radar detector I’m about 2-3 mph slower than what the speedometer actually reads. At 55 by the radar detector, the speedo read 52-53. So I’ll try to dial that in. I set it to 500 RPM from Toyos website

Last two tanks of fuel were 6.5 and then 7 mpg. I can’t hardly believe I hit 7 something must be wrong there. Maybe the speedo being off threw the odometer off...

Anyway, leaving in the morning for Florida. Delivers Sunday. So lots of time to get it there. We’ll see if we can get this old brick down and back using minimal fuel.

Also ordered a new thermocouple for my pyro today. @magard said having a working pyro is really important, so hopefully that’s in the mail when I get back.
