I also have the MS3 on my 01 Zo6. I made 433rwhp with kooks long tubes, Halltech TRAP and a tune.
Im dynoing moday (05/15) to see what i made on a 10 shot of TNT and then drynoing again to see what i made off a 150 shot cam only.

It drives like stock except when you get on it. I have stock idle and still let the clutch out at idle. No cam surge, or any other issues except my bad slave cyclinder. I still get 28-30mpg @70mph.

It is all in the tuning. I have never tuned a single car and had the idle at 1,000rpm. When any car is properly tuned it will make more hp and get better gas milage. I get 28-30mpg at 70mph, as the speeds go up the mpg go down pretty fast in my car. I built and tuned a 99 frc with a smaller cam but heads and all the bolt ons with 430rwhp and he gets 32mpg at 70mph. His car also idles at stock idle. A tune can make or break the drivablilty of a car. If your idle is at 1,000rpm I would look at getting it re-tuned. If your ever in the Charleston SC area feel free to come by and ride in my car or any of my customers cars, to see the drivabilty and the gas milage they have.
