Avg miles per gallon

Observation......

Fabspeed muffs, plenum, K&N CAI = 19.2mpg

Fabspeed muffs, plenum, factory airbox with F-1 filter = 22.1mpg (installed original box for smog).

I think i'll stay with the factory airbox........going to sell the K&N.

my car is pretty damn good on gas.
all highway...about 8L/100 kms or less (definitly less when cruising at 110)

in city, no more than 11.8 or so mixed highway and showoff city driving (so foot welded open quite a bit )

if u guys want better mileage, start stripping weight out and get light weight rims. Also, reduce aero drag, set ur aerokit's to 0 drag settings.

2000 : Supercharged (EVO) 3.4. SSK, FVD headers / pipes

14 around town
25+ on the freeway at 70mph

My "average" indicated on the display is 19 on 50/50 driving but this is known to be about 15% too optimistic on SC'd machines due to the longer duty cycle on the injectors.

Freeway driving is good, very good. I usually see numbers over 30mpg on the display, but that translates into 25+ (ish) real MPG.
