Or maybe a dial that would send the ECU a signal telling it there’s not much air entering the engine. I know there’s a thing on ebay that tells the ECU the engine is getting a whole lot of air so it messes with the air fuel ratio; I want something opposite of that. It would need to be on a switch or dial because you would want power at times, and acceleration or what not. The whole idea would be some sort of “gas saver” mode that I could activate when on a long straight road not requiring lots of power.
Well that would hurt the engine running lean like that, I don't think it's worth saving 200cc's of fuel. But if you want to, you'd have to restrict the injectors somehow.
