We recently did DutchBoy's APS Extreme TT buildup, with FP shortblock, and all the trimmings...tuned with the FCON. He picked up the car and drove it home 12 hours....reported 25mpg!! Nuts!

With a good tune, and a gentle foot on the highway, TT's can achieve exceptionally good fuel economy. My personal car with TT and everything else, averages 22mpg on the freeway, and about 14mpg in town.

Hehe... yeah you could have got 400 if you would have pushed it like me. I think that it took just over 17 gallons to fill it back up.

Mine's pretty bad. Just during the week, back and forth to work (non-Hwy), I generally only get 130 miles for half a tank ...and that's normal driving! No bouncing off the rev limiter or anything!

Of course, my G needs to have the fuel filler recall done so I don't always get a full tank of gas @ fillup. It's all good though.
