Hey all, just wondeeriung what kind of mileage you're all getting. I took a trip to Chicago (from Detroit) and managed to get 30.7 MPG running pretty much at a constant 75-80 MPH. I was impressed. Car is stock aside from a K&N filter.
 
MPG

really i topped off my tank and drove it all the way to empty and only got 189 miles outta it. the tank holds 14.5 gallons right? thats kinda crappy. my Integra gsr only held 12 and i would get like 280 miles! thats only like 13 miles to the gallon. i dont even really beat on it, guess its on the count of the car running so rich.
 
198 miles, obviously you are accelerating too hard and too much. if you are doing normal every day driving going at a constant speed gives you more mpg and accelerating less fast also will.


189 is way too little anyway, probably added wrong. think about it, that gives you like 11-12 mpg, that is what a hummer gets.
 
i've been getting around 310 to the tank. but most of my driving is stop and go. it seems that i normally have more than 40 miles of driving left, or a teenie less than 1/4 tank when the empty light comes on. does anyone else think that's kinda early?

off topic: anyone notice that they're windows roll back up slower than normal?
 
many miles

My best has been 437 miles out of 12.057 gallons.
36.244505266650078792402753587128 MPG.
Not bad but this is only 4 days of driving for me to and from work.
I am on 4th oil change and Ive only had my car since Feb.
I drive very conservatively during the week.
I'm probally the only guy in here braggin about home many miles I get out of a tank :)

Your car maintains a high MPG with the K&N filter? My MPG dropped enormously while I had the K&N installed, which is why it's now lying on my toolbox in the garage. What did you do differently? Is it the cone filter or a drop in filter? How weird... Did you reset your battery after installing it?
 
Average 29mpg. Most of the time it is 28 mpg, but sometimes it is 26mpg or on trips to DC it is usually 32mpg
 
Most I have gotten out of a tank is 360 miles, but then I got tired of looking at the low gas warning light and filled up the tank.

Anyone know what kind of a difference I should see from adding the RB exhaust and an Injen CAI? The exhaust goes on next weekend - the CAI in about a month.
 
Today's tankful was 24.4 mpg, but that included two days of autox runs (about 11) with lots of idleing to cool off between runs.

My best tankful has been about 28 mpg on a trip through the mountains to Yakima for an autox.

Haven't done any straight and level tanks....:cool:

PS: Won street tire class again; 5 out of 6 events. Those Subie WRXs just aren't very fast at the autox!
 
I average 26mpg...most I got on one tank is 411 miles with the little orange gas light glowing for 15 miles of it hehe :)
 
i drove from pensecola florida all the way to birmingham alabama and had a little under a quarter of a tank left in my mp3
 
I've never gotten more than 22mpg, and most of my driving is freeway driving. Granted I get on it more than normal, but I don't think this should make an 8mpg difference. It's not like I ONLY drive fast and furious.....just sometimes. :)
 
i get anywhere from 280 to 380 the best i have gotten so far. Getting on the turbo will suck gas fast..
 
I think the best I got yet was 550km, but that was because I actually drove sensible during the long weekend because of all the cops around. Typically I think I am getting 450-500km, which is not that great, but i have fun doing it ;)
