Hey all you XJ rocket scientists,
How does one calculate (without the use of a dyno) the volumetric efficiency of one's engine? i.e. best gas mpg at given speed/rpm/gear/atmospheric conditons/ambient temperatures, etc.? Or am I asking the impossible?
I've made simple mods (intake/exhaust) to my XJ and have installed synthetic lubricants in all drivetrain cases..just trying to get the best mpg possible. I'm averaging 25 mpg on the highway. Can it get better? Or am I pissing in the wind here?
