0280156007 VS. 784 Injectors

Yeah in all honestly, they're not much different from the stock injectors.
They are a good fit. Anything different from the stock injectors(a good working set) won't show gains anyways.

the fuel mileage on that display is based on injector pulse widths computed against the stock injector flow rate. Assuming that is right, then an injector with a different flow rate with make that display inaccurate since the computer will adjust fuel trims (and pulse width) to reach a correct fuel ratio. Your most accurate numbers will come from fill up to fill up mileage.

You are correct.
 
Really?? Lets do the math.

Assumptions:

  • Driving 12,000 miles per year
  • Averaging 13 miles per gallon (that's what I get :eyes:)
  • Paying $4.00 per gallon for regular unleaded
  • Averaging 18 gallons to fill the tank
With these numbers you will save 5.83 gallons per year, which is $23.31.
If you're getting 16 MPG then the savings shrinks to $15.72 in a year.
If it's a worst case scenario and you are driving 15,000 miles per year and averaging 13 MPG you would save a whopping $29.14 per year.

Kicking a necrothread here, but I had to take a poke at the math.

If he was getting 13MPG on an 18gal tank, that's 234 miles per tank. If he gets 30 extra miles, that's 264 miles per tank, or 14.7 MPG - basically a 12% saving. If he was getting 16MPG on an 18gal tank, an extra 30 miles would mean he is getting 17.7 MPG about a 10% saving.

If you drive 12000 miles per year, lets say at 16MPG and $4/gal, that's $3,000 a year in gas. A 10% saving would be $300. At 13MPG, that's $3700 a year, a 12% saving would be $443/year.
