im saying my s/c 3800 gets alot better then my 3400 did

i got about 29-30 on a 98% highway trip (about 70mph)

the supercharged 3800 is capable of better gas mileage because it has a 2.93 geared tranny

there are things you can do to the tune to get better mileage when modded

but ive since gotten rid of the EGR, low tstat, cold plugs and the mileage goes down the shitter....i can get 24 on the highway now
