I want a new exhaust system on my Swift to make it more fuel efficient…?
Hi All,
I have a 2007 Suzuki Swift (base model) I’m pretty sure it’s a 1.6L.
I currently live in Brisbane and am going to be moving up to North Queensland (Tully for a few months and then Cairns)… Since I will be doing a lot of driving up there, and since I have just decided I will actually be driving my car up there instead of putting it on the train, I want my car to be as economical as possible.
Can anyone recommend the best thing to do to give my car the best performance? Obviously moving will cost a bit so I’d like to keep it fairly lost cost (hopefully below $500).
Thanks everyone!
Exhaust won’t help your fuel economy. That’s the short answer.
The long answer, is that let’s say you spend 500$ on an exhaust, and you increase your fuel economy by 5%, which is pretty good.
Sparing you all the math involved, you’d need to drive your vehicle for around 30,000 miles, before you have paid off the exhaust you bought.
In other words, 30,000 miles before you actually save any money.
Just keep that in mind.
