    Round trip on BD with new tank

    mileage When I first got the ride used, I took a 700 or 800 mile roundtrip, with some town driving while there, and averaged 21.something. No way I could get it now, truck just doesn't get mileage like it used to and I can't keep my foot out of it since I've done a few mods....just wait...

    proper egt?

    Our trucks are basically the same except you have a CC I have a SC. I also have my ebpv gutted. I cannot get my pyro above 950 to 1000 empty, that is on an extremely long hill at about 90 mph. What is you max boost? May have a boost leak? At 48* with your mods I would think it would be...
