My Ride.

My car is a 1999 Saturn SL2 5-speed. It has a 1.9L DOHC 4-cyl. Hence the name, DOHCtor Green MPG . I purchased the car for $2800 from Saturn of Paramus in NJ. I have been averaging 50.7 MPG since I started driving it in September. The best tank I've had was 55.4 when I drove to Tom's house and back for the MHG meet in Oak Creek. I make extensive use of P&G since I have wired up an injector kill switch. My tires are pumped to 60 psi. The cylinder head has been modified by Mike Hollar of
Power Haus. It had .050" milled off along with other mods to the combustion chambers and intake ports that promote more efficient combustion. The cam gears have been off-set to allow for an improvement to the cam timing. A side benefit to these mods is that power has been increased by approximately 30%. Thanks to much advice from Wayne, I have been able to keep myself from using that extra power... most of the time
