I agree.
This is why I track all my cars mileage just to get a hint something is wrong. The way I do it, which makes it easiest for me, is to just run 10 gallons per fill-up. Calculating MPG is easy! ![]() My '87 Turbo does a consistent 12.5mpg now. This is basically all city driving, as work is only 4 miles away for me. When I jump on freeway, it'll hit 20mpg pretty easily. Ported 13BT, hybrid turbo, Haltech E8, Crane Cams HI-6 on leadings My best record has been a Sacramento, CA to Las Vegas, NV run... 400 miles between fill-up's ~13 gallons per fill-up, due to smaller S4 gas tank (16.6 gallon max) That nails exactly 30mpg. All freeway / highway, keep tach under 3,800RPM, average speed around 80mph Car back then was running reprogrammed ECU, small hybrid turbo, Crane Cams HI-6 on leadings, same ported 13BT motor. -Ted |
