Hi, I'm just curious at what kind of MPG (miles per gallon) or how many miles you are getting per full tank?

please list mods and type of driving

I'm currently getting around 210-230 miles per full tank, i fill my tank with exactly 11 gallons of 92 octane. thats what 20 bucks buy in hawaii.

right now i have just an intake, 2.5 dp and 3in full piping catback

car is just used for transportation, once in a while i would just sample it a few times.
 
Guys post your mileage on your AWD or FWD turbo
cars. please put if you have auto or manual if you have bigger injectors...

Also how many miles do you go on a tank full between city and highway driving.




Thanks,
Jim
 
Car in the sig, automatic, I get about 130-160 a tank. That is with a brand new 02 sensor and complete tune up. Mosty city miles.

manual trans. 270-300 a tank , city + a pince of highway. Of course I have to keep it under 3K rpms to avoid clutch slippage.
 
My 2G GSX with stock fuel pump, manual trans.,
city driving-200
highway driving-270-280

manual trans fwd turbo I usually get about 300+ miles per tank depending on how I drive.....much better than my honda, and faster at that.

I get about 230 miles on a tank...

But thats partially because I fill up right when my gas gauge "seems" low...

it's totally innaccurate... when its like... a milimeter away from crossing into blackness, I've still got like seven gallons sloshing around in there.

So how many gallons does the tank hold??? I am new to DSMs!:)

1990-1996 models have 15.9 gallon tanks and 97-99 have 17 gallon tanks.

Right now I'm only getting 17.6 mpg on my Auto 95 GST with nothing more than a K&N filter done to it :confused:

My check engine light keeps going on and off and I'm getting it checked Monday so hopefully fixing the problem will help my gas mileage....
 
2ga's have a 16 gallon tank?

bah ive been filling up when the fuel light comes on at 13.5 used.

i usually get about 340 miles by then, which is 23 miles to the gallonish. my highest was 25.5mpg during a lot of highway travelling. im not conservative on the gas though, and my car isnt exactly stock...except for the basic fuel system (sans propane)
