An extra 2 mpg.
Thanks Cohlineman for the cable! I just hit 25.5 mpg. That's a first. My last fill was 21 and my best was 24. I was expecting little or no noticeable improvement in performance but better gas mileage is a plus.

just curious huck, how much data do you have? i mean, how long have you been keeping track of mileage?
2 MPG is enough for me...
btw, goto your local welding supply shop and pick up good neoprene sheated thick guage cable cheap.
did you just glue that distro block onto washer fluid bottle? and how many points did you connect? i see 5, right?

BADWRX: How long til ya think I get sick of cleaning wires? :P
Scooby Boy: Thanks! 10 gauge
Idivinag: I've calculated every tank I've filled since I bought the car and I'm just about to hit 9k miles. I guess I forgot to mention that I average about 22-23 mpg. Double sided heavy duty tape to mount block.
Everyone else: 6 points + battery connect.

anyone wanna do a "earth" day mega install?
i have access to crimper. buy tons of very good wire from a welder shop and some good brass or copper ends. slap on some shrink wrap tubing and heeat and you have professional stuff.
granted it wont have the really cool mesh type sheating over it that those $100 kits have...
i anticipate $10-20.
huck, where'd ya get that multi-out distro block?

I bought it from some random little car audio shop in Petaluma. It was the last 8 point block they had. Paid $19.95. As long as you stay away from the MONSTER CABLE blocks you should be able to find a 4 point block for around $20. I believe the part vendor was Lightning Audio.
