I just got done testing my mpg thinking it might be crappy since I read the 5s-fe runs rich and plus with the car being 'round 12 years old, but I was joyfully surprised to see I'm running 29+mpg city. (with ac running sometimes and having a heavy foot)
Just something to make me love my car alittle more, since I expected 24-. I'm curiouse though since I want to either add a turbo or swap to a 2nd gen 3sgte as to what my mpg would turn out to be. Who on here with either a 5s-fte or a 3s-gte swap (or the very few who have a 5s-gte) checked your mpg? Just really curious. (even if you don't have one of these set-ups you can still post your mpg ![]() -------------------- ![]() CLOSED on 25 acres! -shop coming soon.... |

i drive winding back roads mostly...i was getting about 27 mpg...shifting at about 2700 rpm...then i started shifting at 3200 rpm...now i'm getting 29.5 mpg...
recently took a trip from oh to va, all interstate, 80+ got 31 mpg... i think my car is telling me to drive faster and no, i did my math right |
