I'd have to check...not sure to be honest but it's not too far off from where it was if I drive it normal. It's probably 2 or so mpg down but keep in mind it now has a blower...a different cam...and the 3:90's.
I'm sure there is a bigger drop during "spirited" driving.
My shift points are different since the change.
If I had it to do over again...with the blower...I may have gone with 3:73's if I was going to change from the stock 3:42's. Hard to hook on street tires but not that big of a deal since I rarely dump the clutch from a dead stop.
The reason I changed in the first place is due to my rear gear beginning to whine and since I needed to do something and was having to pay the $$ I went for more performance. I also had a hardened output shaft installed.
That's been the only mechanical issue with this car since I bought it in 02 so I feel pretty good about that.
