Dedicated to improving gas millage, by any means! EVERYONE POST
I know this has been discussed many times over the years, but with gas prices constantly rising...I'm guilty of considering a VW TDI for an alternate car. I love my ES, but can't stand the 26.7mpg per tank... Comon' its a 4cyl manual trans. We may have given input to several threads at one time or another. Post your millage as well as everything from your mods, tire size/pressure, shifting habits, and anything that can account for improvement for the sole purpose to get the best fuel economy possible. For those who are struggling PLEASE offer suggestions!
Tires 205/50/16 @ 38psi f&b
AEM SRI
B&M SS w/ Kartboy bushings
Tule roof rack with faring (was getting 28 before, still not good)
Shift @ 3400rpm
