LOVE the first group pic with my trunk open! What a rebel... back of the class... trunk open :runsies:

Great pics!

I think I'm more hyper about Bfest after the fest than I was before it!!

Save your energy Mike for next years bfest planning! :)
It was a great year this year. Good job everyone.

I was getting 32.45 mpg in Nebraska. Ryan and I figured out. Not bad for a 3400 swap into an '89 Beretta.

That's not bad at all... What do you have for the chip in the computer?

I almost wonder if you're running lean... I've got a damn near perfect tune (used a WBO2), and I'm getting 29mpg at 75-80.

Nice pics Ace!
To add to the MPG conversation, I peaked at 26.5mpg on the way out to Chicago. Not bad at all considering before I left I was only getting 21 tops. Amazing what a new fuel filter and an EGR delete will do for ya!

And I agree, calm down Mike and save that energy for next year!

I could really care less. As long as its kept up it shouldn't matter, but when it does wear out, I'll just rebuild the whole thing.

Oh and its not the AWD... Amy has a EJ253 motor, basically the same damn thing, just lacking the turbo, it also has a higher gear ratio so she is turning more RPMs than I am at 70, and she can get 32-34 sometimes. She drove the LGT last weekend and her average for the tank was 24.9 Mine is typically 22-23 on a tank.
Wow. Tiff's is usually north of 30 on a trip and she's boost-less.

You guys think two toys is bad, try three. I just found a 3/4 ton 454/5spd truck with no title for $900... trans swap!

did you read that wrong? she gets 32-34 with her boost-less car and that's driving too and from work not always a trip, but only got 24.9 with my LGT last weekend when she was driving it.

No, I was confirming your comment.

Anyway...the Camaro ate up a lot of gas today. Had the local Walton car show/cruise night. Man that thing is fun with the cut outs open!

This was a big success with Beretta #s this year eh. Kool!
Not that I was there, but on a road trip with the 3400 IC Turbo I get overall mpg of 28.7.
190 miles round trip on 6.6gal high test. That was with running 70-80 mph.
