    Synthetic oil, there goes the gas mileage

    well this oil change i went with the Castrol Syntec Blend instead of my usual mobil clean 5000, i noticed my gas mileage went from 27 mixed driving to around 20 highway, i went on a trip to toronto and i wasnt impressed at all i should say though, it feels more responsive with this oil though

    65mm TB??

    folks, i was looking into upgrading my TB to the 65mm TB, i guess it allows more air into the engine and therefore better throttle response. However, the stock svt TB is 66mm ????... if anything, the 65mm one should decrease throttle response??? anyone clear this up for me thanks a lot
