Arrow FI responces only

what has been your avg MPG with your FI setup?

VOTE ABOVE AND WILL SEE HTE AVERAGES

(Gallons at fill up) / (miles driven in that period) = MPG

just give the vote based on your AVG. driving conditions (NOT your worst or best) even if you drive like a bat out of hell all of the time. This will give everyone a since of what their average would be if they go FI. Everyone knows that you gun it more once you FI so that will be part of the avg when we are finished.

I average 14mpg with the way I drive half city and half highway driving.
That's my actual miles divided by actual gallons going in the car.


if I'm going for good gas mileage, I think it's somewhere around 13-14 city, and 22 highway, so I could probably average 18mpg if I tried

bear in mind I have a 3.9 FD and 1250 rpm idle with a vortech

Mine is very bad. but I have only had the kit for 2k miles.

I will eventually calm down and get much better mpg.

mine is around 15MPG.
Actual calculation miles div by gallons put in.
I shift around 3k-4k and i do a mix of city and highway driving.
Highway driving is mostly rush hour so that shouldn't matter
as far as highway mileage.

I do occasionally redline once a day in 3rd/4th gear just to clean the pipes you know.

I average around 21mpg. That's highway, local, and city driving combined. I don't really drive hard though...I usually drive normal and rarely go over like 3800rpms. But I never go a full tank without a few occasionally hard accelerations.

I'm running a normal Vortech setup on my 06 5AT coupe.
