You dont buy an Evo for MPG. On the track expect 5 MPG.

LOL... for normal driving, I've been averaging 200~240 mpt, really depending on driving tho~ If very spirited driving, then expect lower~

I average 260-280 per tank with roughly 11.5 gallons per fill up. I only go up to roughly 0.5 bar of boost on a daily basis with the 1 or 2 1.6 bar pulls on an average day. Roughly 50% highway, 20% city, 30% traffic on highway.

Same for me. Stock IX that I drive to work daily. I dog it now and then. I have seen over 300 before the gas light comes on only once. Usually it comes on around 270-280.

Just blame it on chemistry! Lead is very dense so it's not your fault
