The swap is complete but I need some ideas....

Well,i can tell you from experience that 150+miles with only 1/4 of a tank used is not typical gas mileage of the ve. I consistantly get about 420-450 miles to a tank highway,much less around town.
#165
Mine drops very slowly from Above the fuel line to halfway, about 270 miles worth, then I get another 150 from the rest of the tank... city highway mixed driving. I've gone 150 miles strictly highway before and been at 3/4.

Around town I sucked a 1/8 tank out of it due to the sound of my breather with the "beast" under the hood. It is just SO hard to keep the foot out of it.

There is no more 1-3k rpms
#172
then from there you have a Variable Intake Manifold, VTC's, and Y-pipe for high end.....
edit: CAI will also give low end a little more bite... at least it feels like it anyway...

eh, even when I had mine bypassed. the VE didn't come alive until after 3k.
my EJ on the other hand has most of it's torque down low, so I don't need to go over 3k most of the time. that does take some of the fun out of driving though

Hmmmm.... Can't wait! Be sure to also post multiple clear pics of the engine bay from far away and close up. Let's see what you did with the engine mounts. Did you do the work yourself? If so, you better get ready to give everyone here a decent write up.
Good luck

Don't think i forgot you guys, i have just been busy taking care of all the little glitches i've been having with the car. It was running very rich so i had to install my 3rd o2 sensor and a catalytic converter. When it was idling, every few seconds it would change from 750- about 950 rpm, and i was getting a egr solenoid problem fault. All this was happening because i was missing my EGR temp sensor. It's running so smooth right now, i can't even believe my eyes. it idles 750-780 RPM from the scanner reading, but the tach needle doesn't even jerk, perfect. I'll be taking so pics and a video soon.

Okkkaaaayyyyyyy....... ?? So, where are the pics? I suggest you post nothing further without first posting some HARD EVIDENCE pics, or even better yet Video (showing the whole car with you, and the running engine up close).
But, if it's real, congrats on the idle fix
