Well your Fuel Mileage with 370's alll depends on how you drive it. If your easy on it and do alot of highway then you will get better milage because they are new injectors. But if you drive it like we all do sometimes then worse Because you are obviously able to use more fuel hence the worse mileage. On mine worst ive gotten was 14mpg and that was all while doing testing on new injectors a new tranny and a rear end. Best was 21mpg all highway doing about 75mph but I average around 17 mostly in town with mixed playin here and there.

I get about 17mpg driving right, but with 370's you waste alot because they smoke so much.

As long as your not running laser cut DV's and a 0plate full foward and the star wheel yanked out with the pedal on the floor all the time you should be fine!

It's all in how you drive it. I've gotten 20 on the highway with mine regularly with the stock tires.
