    Official list of HPFP Failures

    MPG increase with temperature: 1.4% for every 10ºF

    My experience concurs with yours, the hotter the weather the better the MPG. Also, the wind strength and direction would significantly impact MPG. Very noticeable during trips from San Diego to 29 Palms CA and to Reno NV on Rt. 395. Thanks for posting your data.

    CP3 fuel pump upgrade thread

    IRC, right around $450. I ordered the option for a 1 micron filter head since I have his 2 micron filter kit. The conversion kit alone was cheaper, but I don't remember what that cost was.
