MrMeanGreen Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 After a completely new and upgraded fuel system, and a completely new tune that has the car damned near to stock drivability, it's set a new record. 16.4mpg on the highway, up from 12.1mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I'm afraid to see what I get at the track. An instant "mpg" gauge would be cool, if not at least comical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I'm afraid to see what I get at the track. An instant "mpg" gauge would be cool, if not at least comical The vettes have an instant MPG gauge. It's entertaining for the first few minutes watching it drop to 1mpg (or whatever it is, can't remember exactly) as you hammer on it.

TTQ B4U Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I have an instant mpg display on my GXP and under full throttle she'll read 2.8-5.2mpg. Now taking into consideration how vastly different/more powerful your car is than mine, yours would prolly display 0mpg QUOTE=DarkFormula]I'm afraid to see what I get at the track.

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 At $3.29 for 87, better gas mileage just in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Fresh Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Damn, that's a pretty nice jump...considering! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Ha, you should see how the power has jumped since last time we cruised together before your mysterious disappearance to Florida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Fresh Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Ha, you should see how the power has jumped since last time we cruised together before your mysterious disappearance to Florida Yeah, I gotta check it out. I still remember when you first installed the SC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oNeSiCkc5VeTtE Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 thats a nice jump...nothing like making a lot of power and still getting pretty good gas mileage. Thats another reason why I went with a c5 over a ws6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billiumss Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I would have expected 18-19 MPG on the highway... Your SD closed loop (using the front O2s for part throttle) right? Maybe doing 80 on the highway is affecting your MPG? lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 80mph and turning almost 3500 RPMs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
