So its time to rebuild one of my 7AFEs because of the all too common oil burning issue, and early signs of rod knock.

SO i want to go fuel economy way since its my DD.

Would a higher CR(12:1ish) make for a better mpg rating when i dont get on it since more torque = less throttle needed?
or is my logic flawed?
