What happens if you turn down the fuel? Better mpg?
@NotSoGrandGarage
@NotSoGrandGarage 2 күн бұрын
Depends on how it's driven. Turning down the fuel on a stock DT would be horrible to drive. They aren't fun in stock form as they struggle to get out of their own way... so if you turn power down, you'll just be driving it harder to compensate.
