auto will suck up more gas than manual.

low 20's = auto or throttle crazy w/ intake
high 20's = manual

Avarage MPG or MPF (Miles per fill-up)in the MIVEC RalliArt Engine...

Just wondering what is everyones average Miles Per Gallon or even Miles Per Fill-Up... i am averaging 200 Miles Per Fill-Up at about 10 gallons which averages out to 21 Miles Per Gallon... Give me your numbers with the current engines mods if possible....

Just to add to my above message...I am using 93 octane Shell V-Power, completely stock engine set-up, and fully synthetic Mobil 1 oil...

I get around 24-25 mpg, mostly Hwy driving to & from work though. Try to keep it under 75mph on the Hwy or your mileage will get worse. My setup is stock so far except for K&N replacment filter. I've averaged about 230 miles per fill up.

Mine has been averaging 261-265 before the light comes on, so that's 10-11 gallons right there. So mine has been pretty decent, considering it's all in stop n' go traffic too.

When I drive open highway miles, it gets up to about 281 on the same capacity.

haha, smartass. It varies all the time, since all (or most of) those miles are driven in traffic. I've never driven the thing down to an empty tank (since that damn light just irritates me), but I should probably do it one time just to see how many miles I can pile on total per tank.

i average about 25-26 mpg, which is 250-265 miles per fill-up. most of my driving is in the city, but i usually shift around 2500-2750 rpms. i just have rrm's cai, and a ractive muffler, but i haven't noticed a difference in mileage since i put those 2 things on.

I get about 230 per tank, mixed city and hwy. I like to drive fast so that mileage could be extended if I wanted. I have no engine mods, but I do run full synthetic, just changed over to Lucas synthetic. I hate the gas mileage...
