Will an Evo ever see 110 MPG?

Now this is what I call a nice combination power and 110 MPG.

If this guy is really getting this out of his car it would be sweet. Maybe he can start working on Evos next.

I myself want to get more power in my Evo but I would like to be able to also say yeah and I also get ?? MPG too. I know the MPG thing has been beaten to death, but I am curious if anyone has tried to do something like the guy in the video? Any members here that can pull 25+ MPG in city driving? If so what kind of set up do you have?

I don’t think I could get my car to get 110 MPG but it would be nice to tell some of the economy cars out there that I can pull as much or more MPG than them. Not only faster but can go further sort of thing.

Just an idea I thought I would share with the forum. Imagine an Evo getting 110 MPG though.

4 ounces of water per 100 miles. Yeah water...its free. It won't cost anyone anything ever. Do the math.
