Your best bet is to stop by a oreilly auto or checker, to scan your codes that your throwing and help get a better idea on what it could be. If your lucky they will clear the code too, but some places wont do it for some reason. Are you located in flagstaff now? Im just on the north side of phoenix as well as a few other members.

stock isnt 2 micron.. its possible you got bad fuel, but i would see what codes your throwing before you spend the money on a new filter.

he doesn't have a cat filter setup everything is stock.

He means cat on the exhaust ty lol. Op where are you right know. I know flag like the back of my hand if you made it that far and can set you up with a guy to get her fixed if need be. If your down here i and ty can help, i have a v2 and we can determind the code. Just by flipping a code mpg can decrease fyi

I drove for 24 hours straight to get back to Kansas an l one I had OKC area the light we t off and the tuck starting rowing better. The mileage started gettin about 10-11. But I still think with a tune it could be a lot better. I'm trading a guy out do a bullydog triple dog. I ordered Pcv reroute and blocker plate. I have gauges on the way. I'm going to get cats deleted and straight piped this week to see how that help. Any more input would be great. I plan on efi but gotta wait for more funds.
