Hey guys,
I've searched this forum multiple times and havent heard anyone give numbers about the 3sgte fuel mileage.
lets start a list of your mpg at whatever boost you're running. also any stock numbers would be great! Thanks!

gas milage is all dependant on the right foot.
the more you press it, the faster you waste it.

You dont want to know.
Well, I really cant believe how P5ycho can get 420 miles to a tank (max 68 ltrs) unless is only highway and without boosting. At 1.1bar, we are talking about excellent mapping also.
The issue is that when you have such a car is very difficult to have your mind on mpg as you continuously feel the need to boost.

17 to 20 mpg... auto transmission low boost and currently without second gear. Still fun as hell to drive though.

I made 27 mpg with 3rd gen 3SGTE (13,5psi,3" cat-back, Castrol syntec 5w30,) at 82MPH(and many times WOT to 100mph) in a 187 miles run.
I stopped tu put the gas in the tank exactly the same time in the beginning than at the end.
At lower Speed (60mph), my 3SGTE should make an impressive 35-36 mpg
Is my car normal? 3sgte is very economical for a 300hp engine
Please post your cars MPG

around 500 km to a tank, with occasional boosting (20psi), and mostly highway driving. Mine is tuned pretty rich but i still get a reasonable 9-10 km/L. I dont use the fuel below the empty line though.

Wow, that is pretty damn efficient. I hate how all today's small four bangers get such good mileage...
7A-FE, I get around 25 MPG, 90% of that being city. I've never fully emptied the tank, but I can squeeze close to 400 miles out of one filling.

Wow, I envy you guys with great gas mileage. I did a complete tune-up and with 15 psi and a lead foot I get 15 mpg. Maybe its my o2 sensor?

2nd Gen GTE, 16lbs boost (CT26), with CONSERVATIVE driving (read VERY little hard throttle runs) I average about 280 miles a tank or right at 22mpg with a 80/20 mix of city to highway driving. I am 100% positive that if I put an aftermarket ECU on the car, dumped the cold start injector, went to speed density, and reworked the VE tables I could up that by about 3-4 MPG. Downside for the swapped cars is the gearing, turning all those RPM's doesn't help.
