it's so hard to behave properly in this car and make any serious attempt at getting good gas mileage. i'm mostly on the highway, but i'm still not getting good gas mileage. it's worth it, imo, i bought this car for it's every-day utility.

How am I only getting 20-21 mpg and there are 2 people getting over 30? Are you turning your turbo off or something? Doesn't make sense. Either that or someone is lying. Not to name names...

I usually get between 19-22, but i did not buy this car for gas mileage I bought it to have fun. If I was worried about gas mileage I would have kept my 91 geo metro that was getting 50mpg with 173,000 miles on it.

Heh, Best I've gotten was 22mpg, worst... about 6mpg sustained at 140mph (4-5psi not accelerating). I've had worse, I made it from Corpus Christi to Laredo in 1 hour 15 minutes. It's about 180 miles away. Avg speed: 140mph

I went through a full tank on two track sessions. It is so much fun driving this car I typically don't pay attention or care about gas mileage.

It seems that no matter if I drive it like a criminal or an old lady, I still get only 15 -16MPG?

Typically I get 19-22mpg as well, although once after resetting the ECU and doing a day of spirited driving....I got about 13mpg on the tank....

I've heard dynoflash improves your gas mileage since it's smoothing out the power curve and leaning out the fuel.

I get between 20-23 mixed City/Highway. Most cases I'll fill up between 240-260 miles on the trip meter.

I did not notice a difference in gas milage with or without Dynoflash. The car did run a lot smoother with the flash though.
