MPG, what's yours? Options

[frosty]

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 )

Well I don't know why you guys are using the total amount of your tank to calculate. All you need is this:

Wait till you need to fill up one time, and once you fill up all the way, restart your odometer.

Then, next time you put gas in, be it 100-200-300-400 miles down the road, divide how many miles you went by how many gallons you just put in.

I just went 195.6 miles and put in like 7.5 gallons or something like that.

Tada!
