Is my mpg normal?
 
Mine has OFT stage 2+ tune with tomei EL header, right now I’m getting 23.5mpg mix driving with 60% street and 40% highway. It was about the same when the car was unmodded. Does this number look low or normal?

Based on personal experience, it sounds about right. I ran 31mpg on stage 1, about 22 on stage 2.

You must be driving it too easy, grandpa. :D OFT with custom tune and UEL here and I get 20 mpg.

Mine is almost exclusively city driving though. If I take it easy, which I rarely do, it will be closer to 25 mpg. Highway and taking is 35+ mpg though.

How are you measuring this MPG?

Breadman 05-28-2018 03:42 PM

my last tank i didnt even get 20mpg with my ace headers, but it was all city driving and short trips

There is no "normal". Everybody will have something different depending on how and where they drive.

I get 21mpg on e85, I must drive like granny.

Whoodoo 05-29-2018 08:21 PM

I must be doing it wrong... I've never seen less than 29mpg on the dash :(

Mine always plummets with a fresh reflash then goes back to 29.4 on the dot every time.

I'm running OFT stage 2 tune UEL headers and when my tank went from full to 1/8th remaining I had covered 300 miles. Probably could have gone at least 30 more miles. I drive a mix of city and highway, but its all short trips

So far running OFT Stage 2+
Let me preface that I drive conservatively. Here are the averages I have been receiving.
City: 22-26 mpg
Highway: 26-30 mpg
Highway Cruise Control: 30-34 mpg
Error of Margin [+ or -] 2 mpg

Turbo and rarely ever get into boost and only average sub 20 (18s-19s) on pump gas.




Sad life.

Depends on a lot of factors:

- heavy foot
- nervous foot (lots of on off), no cruise
- lots of short trips, motor not warmed up, even if short highway, this makes a big difference
- proportion of highway to city
- terrain, hilly or flat
- tire pressures and tires to a minor degree
- oil viscosity to a minor degree
