The temperature gauge seems

The temperature gauge seems to run just under halfway. According to the Scanguage the temp runs right around 195 degrees and goes up slightly when sitting in traffic on a hot day. I can disconnect the EFIE fairly easy so I'll try it that way a couple of times.

I just went for a couple of

I just went for a couple of runs. I disconnected the EFIE and got 56.3 mpg. I then reconnected the EFIE and went for another run. On the second run, I had to slow down for someone who was turning left in the middle of the run. On the second run I got 55.7 mpg.

Wow, that's a monstrous

Wow, that's a monstrous improvement for something so simple, cheap, and easy. I'm glad to see the EFIE didn't help much as I've kind of given up on the tuning function of my AFR gauge.

Wow, I'm so down for trying

Wow, I'm so down for trying these. Thanks for running the tests so soon, haha, you're amazing. But wow, that rocks. My temp gauge is always at 1/3rd even in the 90 degree weather, so I think I can take this. And without a performance drop too, how amazing. Got any pictures of the set up?

you might want to think about just getting a warmer thermostat for your car. Get one that opens up at 195 degrees and your engine will run warmer, and will probably give you better mileage.

A better way to do it is to use the [img] tags.

Larry!

Yo, larry, where is the IAT on the saturn's? I'm going to hook up one of your resistor combo's for a friend to test it and I just wanna get an idea beforehand of where it is so I don't have to look too long (since I'd be doing it before school and all). Thanks.
