Seems to me this mod would cause your mileage to go down the crapper, is that true?
Not necessarily. Many report an improvement in mileage. Theory is: higher pressure improves atomization of fuel. Right now I am running my version of the 10k with actually 7.5k, lower means more pressure, and an old Hypermax chip. My DP-Tuner chip is in for some program updates. On my last trip I made right at 20 mpg. BTW: my version of the 10k uses a transistor to control the turn on of the resistor and is adjustable. Works very good. With this old chip and my injectors the 7.5k can really be felt in the seat of my pants. If I had a bigger HPOP I could go even lower in resistance.
