I get about 250ish split evenly between hwy and in town but I never run it all the way empty. That's math derived

Yeah mine is all city filled with a good amount of "spirited driving" lol:driving:

 

lol i made it from philly to charleston wv on one tank of gas....435-445ish miles on one tank...granted my engine is a stock b18b lol

 

on the way to dragon last year I got 432 miles to a tank!

My mpgz are bigger

435>432

btw aren't you on tristate?

 

Reading fail.

And yes I am, but we shouldn't clutter up z's thread.

Hit me up via pm if you want

 

I still haven't tested out my mpg yet bc of an annoying oil leak grrr I'm hoping to get that fixed and maybe an exhaust, as much as I love open dp sound I hate smelling like oil

 

so

much

fail

aaaaggghhhhh!!!

 

Look on the bright side, at least you didn't find out your clutch pedal has no pressure while on the road.

 

agh i just dealt with that myself, bought a 26$ ebay one and havent had any issues yet, everything fit great first time (i guess we will see how long it lasts though)

 

Isnt that your omnipower cmc? Time to make a call lol

 

yeah.. thankfully me and Steve (the owner) are on excellent terms... called him up and he'll replace it for me

i still have my stock one, so i am going to limp the car (thanks Knavekid for taking my phone call for some rev match advice) up to Orlando-area tomorrow and my friend Chris is going to help me on Sunday swap them out....

sometime before the Dragon i'll put the new Omni one in... so it's all good

 

Thankfully the cmc swap is pretty easy I bet it's gonna be night and day differences though lol

 

Not sure if someone said this, but if you want throttle response, you should probably invest in a short ram intake.

If I remember correctly, you said somewhere in this thread you want throttle response? If you did, why did you go for the cold air?

 

I don't recall any discussion about throttle response

 

LOL, tell it like it is steve. :werd:

i had to pump about 20 times, then i bled it, pumped 20 again and bled it, after 4 or 5 bleeds it finally started building pressure, it took quite awhile to get it normal again

That IS what she said.


Anyways, once again....this project is emptying your pockets like none other man!

 

So got the OEM cmc back in this morning

For the life of us, me and my friend Paul couldn't get any pressure on the clutch line...... we follows SurferX's bleed directions to the T and just couldn't get pressure after tightening down the bleeder valve

Open for suggestions/tips

So we'll fight that battle another day (I'm now out of town for a few days)

 

Gravity bleed it. Put your hose and bottle on the slave, top up the master, crack open the bleeder and have a beer (or multiple).

Keep an eye on the master every now and then so it doesn't run dry. Eventually gravity will do all the work for you. and push the air out.

 

Pump it up. It builds a little pressure up.
If you are sure there is no air, then just pump it up repeatedly

 

Man, must have pumped 50-60 times with nothing built up

 

Slave might be bad too. Happened to my Civic. Junk from the slave killed the CMC. Ended up replacing both, after flushing the line. Do you have a spare slave?

 

i had to pump about 20 times, then i bled it, pumped 20 again and bled it, after 4 or 5 bleeds it finally started building pressure, it took quite awhile to get it normal again

 

Sounds like most of that was cleaning out the slave. Keep an eye on it...it may repeat that trick again.

 

It took me about 10mins of pumping when I just replaced mine steve

 

brand new Omnipower CMC received today, hoping to get it installed and the system properly pressured this Saturday morning..... I want to drivez mah GSR !! it's been weeks at this point...

hopefully i can take it up to Central FL this weekend and hit up some roads in Lake County.... the g/f tells me of some sweet roads along the south side of Ocala National Forest..... i NEED to give the JRSC a good test of torque !!

 

Might be out of your way but ozello trail near crystal river is a pretty good road to drive on.

 

GL getn the CMC installed, and shes right there are a few fun roads around the ocala forest (my mom lives jsut south of them) im sure itll be great to feel some bewst again

 

wow, this is freaking weird...

*after* i ordered the gauge from the above link (which I added two-day shipping which made the order $228 total)

(Amazon Prime ftw)...

emailed Moates asking to cancel the order, they reply "we see no order from you, so you're ok".... ummm... alright then....

googling the kit's part number, Sears sells it for $320+ ??!!

So ordered from Amazon and what the heck, spent the $3.99 to have it here tomorrow and I'll put it in on Saturday morning along with the CMC

 

home stretch for money spending I hope! Last thing on my "to do" list is get the part above the passenger door repainted.... oh, and looking at a $150 tow hitch kit so I can tow the girlfriend's BMW bike up with us to the Draaaaaagon

THEN I'm done..... please for the love of God let me be done

 

I request rolling shots of you towing the bike. See what you can doopcorn:

 

if he rolls up w the fl crew then there will definitely be pix of him towing the bike lol

 

At least he won't have to drive on the Dragon that way.
