i'm still on the stocker @ 50k with like 40 hard launches.

My gas miliage sucks right now, I just installed an AFC and don't have proper guages to tune it with yet. 150-200 miles per tank highway.

I get about 260 normal driving some highway some local then the lights came on.
But I got 310 at 13.2 gallon once on the way to california.. I was freaksing scared that it would run outta gas.

I heard higher octane give you better gas mileage.

I was quite surprised that when I filled up yesterday, I got 21 mpg, pretty much all city driving. And, fairly spirited at times because I just got my exhaust put on and have been getting on it.

19/26 # by is off. They must be simulating a cruise speed going in a straight line road.

When I saw the IX, I'm almost positive it was 19/25...but I could be wrong. Either way, it cost me 32 to fill up my tank last night and I'm damn near empty today. I figure I'm getting ATLEAST 8 or 9 mpg out of my evo.....haha

Yeah, it does seem that way.

I was surprised when I filled up and did the calculation.

My best friend just did 2202miles trip in 3 days. We wre talking today about the gas mileage and he kept the receipts from the 2202mile trip.

He calculated the gas mileage to a 25.1MPG driving above 80MPH average and often punching the gas throughout the entire trip.

He is driving a 05 with 3"TB and air filter , 2 people in the car and trunk and inseide of the car full of lugage.

I hope that helps!!
