Default What does a fuel pak do for you?

Does a fuel pak give you better gas mileage? I am sure it gives you better performance.

Supposedly. I just installed one when I did the exhaust and air cleaner mod thing. I'll let you know if I see a difference in mpg.

Clarify "Fuel pak" there is the newer Fp3 and the original Fuel pak.

Not necessarily. They've been known to give the very opposite.

In fact, there are posts on this forum where guys have literally taken them off and tossed them in the trash.

If you are talking about the original fuelpak DO NOT WAST YOUR MONEY! Go with the power commander PCV! You will have to call tech support for the fuelpak if you have any issues and constantly make changes until all your issues are fixed, mine were never fixed and I got horrible gas mileage and lots of popping.

Every tuning system is bad unless its the expensive ones. That's what you find when you ask and when you search.
