fyi, my reply above was corrected mileage and gas mileage based upon the tire size.

My mileage is up to 18-19 mpg average now. It will probably drop when the ARB Bumper, winch and lift are installed.

Hydrogen seems like the biggest scam out there. Maybe you can prove that different. But the technical information I've read says different.

Well I have personally used it and it works fine, Hydrogen combusts last time I checked. I got 24 mpg with the old 8 cell design. currently working on a 20 cell design.

Maybe you can create a new thread about it. That would be great if it can truly increase mileage that much. I'd love to hear the details.

Well Monty98 found a programmer for our rigs finally. So that and Smacksboosters.com will give you a huge start. They have a dry-cell type that works wonders. Gas companies would probably kill to keep this a secret.

I've spent so much time and money on this water for gas stuff that I am just exhausted/frustrated! I built a unit for my '90 Maxima 2-3 years ago, and it worked, but I always had major rusting problems with the wires and I could never figure out the winter dilemma. So I'm just going to have to live with 16-18 mpg.

Stainless steel is the way to go. The only thing allowed in my cell is stainless steel. The best thing to do is run a battery operated trickle charger to keep the water from freezing. The dry cell's are the best way to go.

I would not recommend the Jet option. Since you can get a piggy back for cheaper that will also allow you to make adjustments as needed I would go with a SAFC or a Greddy. Clay

i have hankook 265/70/16,,,when i got this suv back in 2010 i was having an average 17 mpg in town...and on a trip from vegas to salt lake on the firs tank i got 22 mpg at 60 mph cruise. and then on second i got 18mpg at 75-80 mph not on cruise. i am driving a truck for a living...so since 2010 til last month my mpg dropped to 14-15 in town with neutral at lights and some coasting . i do check my mpg every tank.the past month i did put in my tank 2 bottles off fuel system cleaner, one chevron synthetic fuel system cleaner and the other one i forgot the name bun not synthetic, just fuel system cleaner. after that i was really impress from the first tank with in town and 20 ml hwy, i got 19 mpg. that cleaner worked wonders

Exactly what black98ls said. Is there a way that anybody has found that they are able to readjust their odometers?/speedometers? Mine dropped a bit too after increasing just about 1 inch in tire size. Which doesn't make sense. So I'll check out the mitsu dealer tomorrow about this question. Yes.

Check out Dakota Digital. www.dakotadigital.com/Edward www.4x4extremesports.comThanks Edward, looking in to the options. Not sure If I could somehow use their device that pulls OBDII info and rewire that back into the stock/oem speedo? That would be interesting to see if that were an option. This item here >> www.dakotadigital.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=product/product_id=825/category_id=287/home_id=59/mode=prod/prd825.htmFrom their website: Automotive Products > Speedometer & Tachometer Interfaces OBD II Speedometer/ Tachometer Interface From Dakota Digital Click to ZOOM! OBD II Speedometer/ Tachometer Interface The Dakota Digital STA-1000: Late-Model Drivetrain integration has never been simpler! The STA-1000 plugs directly into the OBDII diagnostic connector, providing a user-adjustable traditional Speedometer, Tachometer and Check-Engine output for your choice of aftermarket instruments. Features: >Fully compatible with common aftermarket electronic speedometers >User selectable output of: 4k, 8k, 16k PPM signals, Sine or Square wave options >+/-35% speed signal correction, compensating for tire size or gearing changes >Adjustable 4, 6 or 8 cylinder tachometer signal output >Check Engine light output provides a grounded (-) output to activate a check engine light of your choice >Automatically calibrated output for an aftermarket cruise control can be activated by making connection to the higher-resolution fixed VSS sensor >Small footprint measures 4-3/4"x 3"x 1" making it easy to hide Looks promising.
