Good to know, thank you. I had a lighter FW before and liked it a lot. I think it suits the nature of the FA20, as you've got to rev it out anyway. ;-)

Which ACT do you recommend, and do you sell them? PM me with details if you like.

I'm currently avg ~ 25mpg and I lay into it daily. But mpg will be largely determined by your right foot. I'm estimating mine gained at least 5lbs after the install. I'm sure you can get better if u baby it but honestly who wants to baby a boosted car? Haha.

Just put act heavy duty clutch with streetlite flywheel and it's amazing no chatter just a little heavier clutch pedal and faster revs

I alternate between my 86 and a lifted FZJ80 Land Cruiser. No matter how I drive the FR-S the MPG seems awesome! ;-)

So far I haven't been able to even hit 25mpg. I think I've been driving pretty conservatively, but even still... Most of my driving is city driving. I mean it's fine. Just interesting how my mpg experience is stacking against others.

My previous car was a Mini when I had a 60 mile commute, so anything under 32mpg is an adjustment

Luckily I take the rail to work now.

Anyone using Fuelly besides me?

If you drive it like stock, you'll get MPG like stock.

Now, driving it like stock when you're JRSC'd is... not easy.
