What he said. My car has the same mods, and I am getting the same mileage.  Each
time I replaced a component, I expected a chance, but the mileage has stayed
rock solid.  I also have a full Stebro exhaust (including cats).

On another note, my H2O temp gauge is non-op.  Is there an order of sensors to
check?  Like to have a temp gauge, now that summer is here, and I do tow.

Thanks!
