hello all, im new here. im looking to save more gas with my 99 gt. i was wondering if there is another differential i could use to lower my cruising rpm.
if i want more power ill leave it in 4th gear. 3000 revs at 60 mph or so seems a little high, granted its good for power.


anyone have any ideas?

How about better quality plugs? I get over 30mpg highway on my stock (aside from an intake... which helps MPG too) 5s. I run NGK Iridium plugs and simply the quality burn helps with fuel mileage. Using mid grade helps too. Don't make things so complicated if you're just trying to gain a few MPG. Tried and true methods usually are more efficient and least expensive. wink.gif
