Hello all,

Puting together a 90 Turbo diesel Jetta. I'm driving 124 miles a day so I need ecomomy. Dropped off the block at the machine shop this morning.


Current car is a 98 Saturn SL2 which is getting about 33-34mpg but I want more.

In Utah for referance, looking forward to tips and tricks for better millage.

Warm air intake works like a charm on those saturns!

Welcome! The turbo diesel should help you out, and those Saturns are awesome on gas with just some minor tweaking!
