I switched over to the Haltech a couple months back and decided to have it linked to my Innovate and I am seeing incredible mileage...sometimes an additional 30-40 miles per 1/4 of a tank. Doing 80 mph, I was averaging near 30mpg. Anyone else do this with this Haltech and see similar results?
With the Utec and less boost, I was drinking gas, maybe 15 mpg city, very low 20's at best on the highway.
Maybe I am just not driving in boost enough...

since i added my exhaust i'm calculating about 25-26 mpg for each tank when i fill up (same station, same gas every time for consistancy).
I was barely over 20 with stock exhaust. I also switched to shell premium gas too verses whatever gas Jiffy sells.

With my Greddy E-Manage Ultimate I got 31.9 for a 2 hour drive at 80mph. I took a trip last weekend, 400miles there and another 400 back, with some spirited driving I ended up with 28.9, but averaged 30.8 at 85mph for the first 400 miles. It doesnt suck at all!!
You guys must not boost much. I can practically watch my gauge go down while I drive since I'm boosting so much LOL. On a full tank w/out boost I get near stock mileage but I only tried that once.

lol..i try all the time, but it only last for about 2 miles of driving..lol
How are you boosted guys checking mileage? Off the stock multi-meter?
If so, I thought those are no longer accurate when you swap injectors????
I too am getting good mileage with bolt-ons (24.1mpg in the city) even with 4.08 gears

i honestly cant believe people get 30 mpg in this car. the absolutely most babied drive 100% hwy and i may get 21 with a high 14 AFR. 600 mile cruise is crazy.
mostly i get 13-16 around town.

Unless you test over a full tank of gas, check mileage, and refill checking gallons added, it won't be accurate once you've modded the car. In the rain coming back from Forged I had to refrain from boosting and I got 21 mpg, AFR almost exactly 15 on both banks. (Okay I did boost twice during a dry spell
) Around the city, I can get the number down to 13 no problem. LOL.

I hope you guys arent looking at the stock gauge / mpg . Because its not accurate once you go with bigger injectors etc.. Mine says I get 30-35mpg on the gauge.. but theres no way I get that much as my MPG have decreased a lot! once I went FI
I dunno how many MPG I get, but I squeeze 2 weeks out of a tankful from my 'O4 Touring Coupe, when I use cruise control. Otherwise, I get 12-13 days out of a tankful. BTW, I live 9.5 miles from work, so distance is not a problem in my specific case.





How many miles can you go on a full tank?
