Gas Mileage Challenge...... Hello Guys, Since our car aren't that fast we don't have much to brag about with speed. But lets see who can get the best milage on 1 tank of gas...... I'll start off and people can follow if they want. 2001 Civic si 5 spd Mods that would affect milage: Exhaust rear section only Most mileage on 1 tank: 642 kms How much left in tank on fill up: 11 L Have fun |
My car rides like sh|t for mileage, coz I drive D/T. I usually have to fillup around 480km and around 36L or so... What's the size of the tank? |
Calculate your KM/L..... Car: 2001 Acura EL, Auto, no engine mods driving style: 90% highway I get: 6.25L / 100km.... Pretty close to the advertised mileage [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] |
So I had like 7.25 on city driving on stock... Normal. Will know in a few days how Injen CAI affects that. |
01 Si 5spd, mod that will affect milage, magnaflow catback, car running 620-650kms until yellow light comes up and getting better, dunno y, 40% hwy driving and 60% local driving, and push the car to redline about 10% of driving, im really pleased with the milage |
wow u guys get some crazy millege, do u drive 40 km/h or somethign??..... the best i can get is 460 km :_doh: |
I get about 550 to 600 km with ultra 94. Less in the winters. Have injen sri. I once got 675km on a tank but that was a fluke. I wish i got that all the time. |
Wow... Ok update on what to include: For all of you, post: Year and model (2 or 4dr) and trim (D/L/E/S) Tranny Mods that would affect milage Gas you use (Brand and %) Most mileage on 1 tank Your avg fillup (L) / distance (KM) * 100 |
Wow a lot of details to include, anyway here goes: 01 lx 5-speed AEM replica intake, bosal muffler, tightened throttle cable? Sunoco regular most mileage: about 600 I think Avg fillup: after about 500kms, about 42 litres. P.S. I drive my Vic really hard. I love to rev' it up! |
02 LX Coupe Auto Rims and B/K (shouldn't affect mileage) Sunoco regular 87 Max: 511 Avg fillup: 480km with 36-37 litres Usually get around 7.5 L/100km car has about 5000km on it |

Pretty close to the advertised mileage [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][hr] that's way off from the advertised gas milage....i don't drive the car hard either...i also let the car roll on hills and don't drive much faster than speed limit...(usually around 60km/h on city streets) maybe i keep using up too much power cause i turn the system up..hehe |
02 LX Sedan Auto not much done except system. Petro Canada 91 Max: 550 Avg fillup: 500km with 36-37 litres |
430km sunoco ultra 94.. usually get about 380 than the light is on.... how the hell do u guys get 600 sth... |
With my CAI first week gunning like mad I'm getting 29.6L / 360km ~8.3, which is high!! Gotta start gunning it less. Haha |
maybe we should add ur total odometer too. i got 22500 and just started doing better. b4, 40L at 470km. now, 520km at 40L. 2k2 auto si. i dont see how u guys can get 600 b4 the lite |
heh. i got 550 before the light :):):) |
Eh, I never really fill up last minute due to the distance I'm required to drive everyday... really sketchy business... so, who won this challenge anyways? Any car pushing thereafter? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] |

I've gotten about 530 kms - 540 kms... and that's using Sunoco Plus 89.5 Octane, and seldomly using the A/C. I'm almost empty right now... but the light hasn't come on yet! I'm trying to hang on for a lil' while longer until the gas prices go down. 73.5 is crazy!!! I'll post again after I fill the tank then run it down again. BTW, how many kms do you have left of driving after the fuel light comes on? |
