When I use my MP8, I see a little bit of mileage increase with it turned to about 50% as opposed to 0.

i recently installed an old striker II pressure box i had lying on the shelf & almost immediately i started to see improved mileage.

Funny how a little extra RP equalls better economy....anybody know why?

Better fuel atomization is why you get better mileage with bigger than stock sticks.

Do you have stock stix's? I always hear a little mileage increase with folks with say Flux 1.8 or greater.
