Whats up guys! I'm new to the site and have heard great things about this site. I am curious on what MPG's ya'll are running. I have a good bit of mods on my truck and it seems like the more mods I do, the worse the mpg gets. When I first got the truck it was stock and I was getting 18 mpg. Now, if I'm lucky I might get 14 mpg with all the mods I have done. So, what you guys got?

 

your foot has alot to do with it. seriously. i hand calulate 22 in town and 24.5 highway. also what gears do you have. tranny? if auto is it stock? 2wd? 4x4? last time air filter was changed? what kind is it? fuel filter? gotta give more info if you want a good answer. all that beeing said. WELCOME TO THE SITE!!!

 

Im not to heavy on the gas. Im thinking i've got some other fuel delivery problems maybe. It's a 5 speed trans, 4x4, i keep the k/n air filter pretty clean. i i only have about 300 or 400 miles on my airdog 100 filter. I just dont feel like the trucks performance is what it should be! With all my mods, the truck seems like a dog. I can put my foot to the floor and it just doesnt seem to be all there! I dont have any codes flashing. One more thing, i hardly ever get any black smoke. i get alittle puff on start up and maybe if i have it to the floor and turn it to 3,000 rpms i might get alittle smoke, but not much as i think there should be.

 

The box that says banks on it that's your issue. the banks stuff just doesn't seem to work that well.

 

I get 18-20 with a mix of city and highway. It'll smoke like crazy if I turn the smarty up, but I keep it at the mileage setting when I'm not towing to save fuel.

 

i agree with quadcab... get rid of the banks box..go get an edge comp. the difference will be noticeable!!!

 

Welcome. I get 13 - 18 with mix of hiway and loaded around town

 

An Edge is a better box for these trucks. Banks are little better on the CR Dodges but its not the best for those either. I get 19-22 hand calculated. How many miles are on yours and when was the last time you got your valves adjusted?

 

I used to get about 20 hand calculated but my VP44 is on the way out and I get about 15 hand calculated now

 

any banks electronics is junk IMO. (not knocking your truck) if you want overall options get a smarty. you can stack it with anything. so if you want to go bigger you have a great start. plus mpg should go up.
