You imbecile you played right into their hands. They talk payment $, not total price to convince you it's a good idea. You just ate the initial depreciation on 2 vehicles for a trans swap. If you are going to trade at least trade up... This is the third revision of the same car for you.
Lol'ing forever,
This is why no one takes you seriously. You are a pathological liar. There is no way you are going to get over 30mpg out of that car with a handheld tuner. Hell, you could give it a booster rocket and a flux capacitor and that still wouldn't happen. It's only rated at 15city/23hwy/18combined. Who are you trying to fool? Hand calculate your mileage and you will be shocked. Dodge is notorious for having digital mileage readouts that read high as fuck to cpver their asses. My truck reads 25% high. May camaro is +/- 5%. It's a more efficient setup than yours and only sees 22mpg driven normally.
I can think of lots of engines that dont break 500hp with that setup.
I did trade up lol, i went from a 2011 hemi challenger with an auto to a 2014 with a 6 speed lol
by taking the miles since last fillup and dividing by the gallons you put in, i was getting on average 23.8 mpg on no tune. after tune was 29. My new one with a manual i could tell right off the bat is gettin 2-3 better in general so im assuming i can get 30-32. Thats assuming i drive i nicely, which i do a lot of the time. (That 98 in a 55 ticket a few months ago tamed my right foot, a little, lol)
I did a tank once with beating on the car decently and i was only getting like 12mpg lol. That was in my last one with the auto. In my new one with the 6 speed / my last tank i averaged 18.2 mpg with the same amount of beating. If i really try I can usually get, while driving normal, about 425-450 miles on a tank. With a 19.5 gallon tank it comes to about 28mpg. I dont ever let it go under 1/8 so the fillup is always about 15-16 gallons.
My last car had the auto and the MDS system which helped on the highway vs my new 6speed doesnt have MDS. Ive only had the car for 2 days, its hard to tell as of right now, but yeah. It was a birthday gift to myself, which that day is today, so imma go cruise around
