Default The mod that increase 40 plus miles per tank to my Cayenne.

Well at first I do it for the horse power increase, but after that I begin to realize that the miles per tank increase in like 12%. Before the mod it gets 290 to 300 miles per tank on average and now it have increase to 340 to 350 miles per tank. I did not believe it at first so I did not post for like 4 full gas fill up.

Here it is, not the most beautiful but it does the job.

The last picture is the only other performance mod that my Cayenne have.

What kind of car do you have? S I am guessing and you are saying that you have a cat bypass? My Cayenne S always says 520 Miles to empty, reality is another story!

Sorry, I am not sure what you did. Did you make your own cat bypass?

Me neither. Something got welded to something else. But it didn't look anything like the final picture.

I just guessed, and welded some black rod to some exhaust parts today. Taking it to the track tomorrow to find out how she does.

The only thing I got out of it is that he put the intake pletum on it so it must be a turbo but the gas mileage he was getting sucked to beging with tho.

I can't weld, but if I use J-B Weld and glue some stuff to my exhaust I'll get more miles per tank? I've got a lot of small metal Buddha statue sitting around. I'll start attach it to the exhaust and report back on how my mileage changes.

I just did the cat delete mod. It is a Turbo. I was just amazed that it did an increase in MPG.

Pics show the area where the secondary cats would be.

I'd bypass my secondary cats but I'm not paying $500 for two pieces of pipe. Just as a reference of the ridiculousness of $500 for two pieces of pipe... an Apple iPad with 180+ individual electronic components and the ability to pull an internet signal out of the air costs only $499.

Drop the pipe price to say... $100 per set and I'm in.

It's just the principle of the thing.
