What's wrong with you asshat writing these statement like you are bringing the words of god upon earth.

I got a gt86 for many different reasons and one is DD.
It's not about money on the immediate, it's a projection in the future
And not being a retard. I live in Europe, I pay 1.867 euro each liter of fuel, do the math and compare it to how much you pay for your fuel. Now if I have to spend more then 500 euro a month just for daily commute to work I just prefer to buy a true race car and a daily beater. This car was the perfect compromises between driving a mommy car or a race car.

Just for your information I had and have already a true race car and if I need seriously more power I just don't drive this car.

Depending on what country I am in currently determines what I pay for gas which changes quite often due to work.

If you wanted more power you wouldve gotten another car... Hmm. But you didn't, and now here you are posting in FI 86 threads. Gj. Suggestion don't mod your daily but instead your said "race car". I know your feel, it's ok bro.

I avg 30.1 MPGs.

Bro I wanted a funny car for DD, in my opinion the stock gt86 has not enough power, the race car can't be used on public road it's illegal here, so I can use it only on the track and the closest one is 300km. Why can't I be concerned about mpg... I'm modding the gt86 so it can become a good funny car for mountains run in the weekend.

You ppl should try to think more, and write less, I should do it as well no doubt.
Just because you don't care about mpg that doesn't mean it's the same for everyone.

Yep. And still, it's all about how you drive. This is like talking to a fucking wall...

Your right foot determines your MPG. If you're going to drive faster because the car is faster, then your MPG is going to drop. If you're going to drive the same speed and at the same rate of acceleration at normal every day speeds, then you MPG will barely be affected, if at all.

Your right foot determines your MPG.

When using my frs as a daily on 93 it never goes above 3k rpm's. According the shitty mpg gauge I get 34.4 average. Does that make u feel better?

Me <3 mpg

This.

Well, superchargers to drag the engine down a bit, so you are going to see SOME loss of MPG simply because of the drag. As the Rotrex units are so efficient, the impact is less (especially against a roots style blower).


If you want better MPG a turbo is more efficient at that (as it's load based and not simply RPM based), but it's also a more complex install and you have to deal with the heat issues.


Typical pros and cons of modding a car...

Are you in heavy traffic usually? I'm on an aftermarket tune. I don't really know I just drive. Lol never past 3k rpms and about 10km over the speed limit. May do things subconsciously though.

Probably is my commute but I do 5km in a bit of traffic and 15km in highways. No matter how i press the accelerator i never see less then 7.5l/100km
Probably is the not flat road but still big difference between your 30+ and my 24 ehehe

Nevermind sorry for the off topic.

Under 3000 RPMS? Way more control than I. Car doesnt become fun until higher RPMs
