I dunno bout economy yet, I only did em on Sunday.
From what I've seen so far, it doesn't looki like its changed much.

I have to get used to changing gears a little though, doesn't need as much throttle as it used too. . . .

Hey Fitzy, I just realised, urs is a VR, they only do the rockers for ECOTECs, well FIT anyways. U may have to look at the Yella Terra versions for the buick.

I think Yella Terra do do em in 1.9, but I wanted to have it looking a stock as possible, just incase. . . .

I finally had to fill up a tank, fuel economy is pretty much the same. I got 20 odd less ks outta my tank, but I think that was mainly due to me being a little heavy on the throttle. . . . :whistling

So yeh, if u can afford em, get em!! :thumbsup: :D :yeah:
