    nope, do some searches...it's all on the way ya drive. you throttle it a lot, well of course mileage will be worse. but ya treat it nice, it shouldn't change much, if any at all.

      Best mod for a quick launch? Mickey Thompson drag slicks or Hoosier drag slicks.

        3.73 gears. make sure you have lsd though, otherwise you'll turn the tires to smoke.

            3.42's , LSD , 3500 stall with a 2.5+ STR will do very nicely

            :cool:
