| you shouldnt have to replace the timing chain. they are meant to last the life of the motor in most cases. and that whirring sound wont cause timing issues if it is what i think it is.
it does sound like you may need to just replace a chain guides, but i honestly stopped reading halfway though.
straight pipe will have minimal effects on mpg, if any. you may pick up a pony or two. | |

| Try changing your fuel filter, that may cause the bad mpg. As for the "whirring" sound coming from the timing chain, Kevin is right you may just need to replace the guide. To save money first use a multimeter if your injectors are actually working and do a flow test to see if they are flowing correctly. Then go and replace them if they are not fuctioning correctly. | |
