I believe you change the injection pump and duty cycle for 38-40mpg with a little power loss
Not my kinda thing. Something will wear out prematurely. driving a car at 1000 is not right. I would never do that to my gearbox, especially an overdrive, Not to mention lower end of the motor will likely stress as well. The fuel savings are not worth the repair costs IMHO. 45-60 in overdrive is too low. These cars are suitable for the autobahn.
