MIKEBRAVO Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I got 27 mpg!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........on the way to work, full tank of gas 70 mph with cruise on. 35 mile commute. I am convinced it is all in the foot. My last tank I only got 280, and i was beginning to think I had a leak. Nope just a Fat Foot:) If you can afford College, you probably don't need to go.

STG Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Hi All, Need some help & advice from my LGT owners about Stage 2. Here's the setup: ........I'm noticing HUGE losses in Fuel Economy. On a Full Tank, driving *conservatively* (No Hard Revving, No "gunning" the car, etc.): 1. Stock (Before Stage 2): I averaged ~310-340 miles on a full tank (w/ AC running). 2. Stage 2 (after installation): I'm getting 275 - 290 miles. HUGE economy losses? :lol::lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legasee Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I'm happy to maintain 260-280 miles (same as stock) to the tank after going stage 2, gunnin' it a few times a day in short bursts , I was able to get 20 more miles to the tank at stage 1....overall a very very lowp rice to pay for good performance gains, can't have both good accleration and increased mileage now can we??!! ** the 260-280 includes 26 mile round trip to work and back home in 1/2 traffic each way, 5 days per week. In Taiwan now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy_Otaku Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Hi All, Thanks again for everyone's help & advice! I have an update on my MPG situation: * After the 3rd & 4th Full Tank runs, I logged in: * 3rd Tank: ~326 Miles (~24 MPG average) * 4th Tank: ~321 Miles (~23 MPG average) (I did a little gunning here and there ) (Reminder: STOCK, I was averaging ~310 - 350 miles on a full tank.) So, overall, looks like it was just my ECU getting used to the new configuration / Stage II! (Joy) Well this makes me feel a lot better (I was worried I might have some kind of leak as well). YOSHAAA!!! Thanks again everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghibli99 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 ^^^ I rode w/ L_O yesterday in his Stage 2... muy bien, patron. It now actually sounds like a Subaru should... it will sound even better this week. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
