Are you sure you are using correct Math there?

Kevins rig has so many mods we called it the worlds only H1.5....plus he is a Hummer mechanic.

try full body under armor, winch and a complete tool chest <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... adbang.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':headbang:' /> (not a socket set but a 2X2X3ft chest!!!

Just because I drive a HUMMER don't mean I don't care about the planet.... in fact it means I can get to most parts without any help!

I have modified everything from gearing (5.38:1 instead of the 4.10:1), engine and timing, air intake,etc, etc, etc!



My rock rails that I built weigh in at 250lbs each!



My tool chest is another 700lbs. Then there is my under armor...trust me it is heavy and great on gas! You just have to know what to do!

What Octane do most Hummer owners use?  89, 91 or 93?

I have mine tuned, similar to Polar Bears.  Just run regular gas.  I haven't tried premium in it to see if it makes any difference.  With the pro tune, it runs smooth and doesn't knock or miss.

in my H3 Alpha i run a full tank of premium every 2-3 months, notice slight quicker response and +- 1 l/100 in gain
 
on the H2 SUT with 6.2, 6 speed, i did the same one full tank every now and then = a bit easier on gas but already doing 16.9- 17.5 regularly and with premium 94 16.3 - 17L/100 and slightly quicker response.  
 
So its not bad doing it every once in a while , it cleans the internal , but regularly, it might become expensive 110L at 1.54L twice a week
