I am so depressed, I went to get gas today and was bored waiting at the pump, when I decided to check what my average miles per gallon is.

Average = 8.2 mpg
Got a full Tank of gas at $50.60 and with the display reading
DTE (Distance Till Empty) @151 miles.

Gotta ask you about this tomorrow dude... :?

 

[MustGoFastR]

I'm RWD and the mods added a mpg or so as well.

 

[Gwish]

been doing manual shifting and getting around 18mpg with 50/50 driving.

I get 19.5-20 since the torque converter...21.5 before.Everyday city 13.5-14 converter made no diff(I expected it to).

Wait a min.! You were getting 21.5 with an FX45 before???...maybe downhill at 55mph. :? I know I've been over 20 a time or two, but only on cruise at 65mph.

 

[brnjug]

Yes!As I have stated before,every mod except the converter improves mileage.I used to see 19.5-19.9 before the Eibachs at 80-85 0n Pa Turnpike from Phila-Hbg twice a month(115 mile one way)...usually with cruise ,sometimes not.No roof rack(less drag) /Eibach gave me 1.5Less air under,nose slightly lower=better angle of attach.Those MPG are like the 35 as Piniti-FX and I discussed today...others can do this!

 

[jimsbmw]

Well all I do is 90 percent city driving, just calculated and its been just over 11 months and with 3750 miles.

Jim

Love to floor that gas!!! :twisted:

 

[FromHereToInfiniti]

brnjugfx45...Thanks for the clarification. I need to go back and read up on the mods you've done.

 

[jimsbmw]

Just decided to take a pic this morning on the way to work.

Hey jimsbmw...I think the tens digit on your mpg gauge is broken

 

[jimsbmw]

I keep forgetting that in asia we use kilometers, so in the past I didnt realise it untill that day I decided to conver kilometers into miles. My computer must have a virus or something.

Jim :shock:
