Should be interesting.

wow, yeah you will definatly be kicking some with those mods , good luck with it!

 

Ok, a lot of people wonder what the fuel economy on turboed lancers is, so i cleared my trip metter when i filled up at the pump last time, keep in mind i did not let it go all the way down, only about halfway through the last qrt tank mark, because i had a trip to make so i had to fill up again. Anyways the total miles traveled on that tank of gas were 288, when i filled it up after, it filled 9.75 gallons... so 288/9.75 = 29.6
And that is with a lot of WOT, i wanted to see how much the turbo affected it.
I never done this before so i really have nothing to compare it to, but next fill up i will try to let it run till the empty light comes on.

 

that's not bad...

 

yeah thats pretty great. I only get 27 mpg highway driving to san antonio. But I have an auto. So I'm guessing the turbo prolly keeps gas mileage the same. But then again, you have to use 92 octane right? I think i get about 30-32 mpg on that.

 

yes you have to use high octane.

the kit only adds extra fuel when your WOT & at higher rpms, so it makes sense that it would not alter the mpg too much, unless you drive WOT all the time liek me j/k

 

lol i know if i was turboed, id get no more than 10 mpg.

 

I only get about 24 MPG now Can't stay off the throttle! I used to get 29-30 MPG.

 

That is still pretty good mileage.

I actually just filled up last week and got over 26 MPG! And that was with several insane pulls! Now, I can only hope for even better mileage once I can get this thing tuned and stop dumping unneeded fuel at WOT - currently running an AFR of 10.5!
