I might return to the track this Thursday but I'm not very into it, I don't think I'd do better now

I just refilled the tank and got 21MPG, I have been told that VE was better than DE in gas saving terms, I don't now what's going wrong with this car.

I guess I'll have to get rid of my SR16VE cams and get N1's instead, get a wideband, tune it and cross the line in 3rd gear

I forgot to mention, I'm running an eBay 2.5" header... I didn't touch the ports but I had to port where it bolts because it didn't slide right away.

My PS pump is getting noisier and the car is unaligned, when I floor it I feel like I am on a boat floating around.

My car is 2511 full interior, when I take it to the track I just remove rear seats and spare tire 35lbs give or take

well the town traffic and a/c is killin ya lol..

i went from portland to seattle (roughly 190-195 miles) on barely half a tank, thats playin around with my friends the whole way.. then on the way back we ran into traffic an it killed us big time.. used 1/4 of a tank just in damn traffic.. the b14 guy got slightly better mileage then i did with my b13ve an the stock se-r guy got very slightly less then i did.. but they weren't playin like i was lol

Not as much as you may think, the highway miles were 100 and the needle went just over half tank, I know there's something going wrong with my tune... maybe I'm running rich at closed loop but the plugs won't say a thing.

I'm about to order a wideband, time has come

Is there any chance that my busted PS pump is stealing me power?

When I'm parking my car I can hear it screaming and my idle raise, any close turn will make my idle move
