Well as many of you know I put the S3r kit on my car in the beginning of November. Last week I went on vacay to Florida with the car. The car got 31 mpg DAB 0 on I-95 during the flatter non-traffic induced areas and we made it to Boca Raton in 17 1/2 hours. 100% flawless operating trip and I had a few little runs with a brand new Aston Martin DB9, 6.0L GTO, and a chipped VW Jetta GLI or GTI whatever they are. Here are a few pics of the car chillen on the strip at South Beach, Miami.

BTW the roads in Florida are more condusive to traction. It must be due to the material they use to pave is different than up here.

Yes sir, I stayed with my friend that was going to school in Boca and she showed me all around Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Then from there we shot over to where my parents have a condo on the west coast in the Port Charlotte area. So the car got roughly 3000 miles on it throughout the trip. I did calculate the mileage every time i filled and several times it was 31 but the more local driving was 27-29mpg. I couldn't ask anymore out of the car it performed and performed. Mopar did their homework, I love this car even more now with this setup.

s3r should come standard


Effin A right it should!!! It was awesome being able to install the whole setup fairly easily and then starting it up on the first turn of the key. The reliability of the Mopar staged kits is shown here. Now to get mine installed....:yay:
