1454 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 How fast did you have to go to get those mpgs? What stage are you guys running at? All I have is tbe and k&n panel filter. And half of my commute was 74 and the other half was 64.(I set the cruise at 9 over.) so you can call it 68 or 69mph average. if you don't use cruise, then you can bank on a half to one mpg less average. Unless you're really good at throttle control. Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainobvious Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 LOL i wish. I actually use the cruise control alot and try to stay out of boost unless i really wanna Whoomp on it. I get about 325 out of tank all city and fill up about every 4-5 days. did u get a free tow for like 10 miles and then they unstrapped u? Real world here is 18-25mpg + a few tenths maybe 25.3 32:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicotic Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Cruising on highway i get good gas mileage, but in city not so good. My Nissan Murano gets better gas mileage than my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCHM1AN Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I just hit 27.0 mpg doing 100% highway on the way back from Northern WI this weekend. Judging by my scangauge, I bet I gained an additional 1.5-2.0 mpg staying behind another car most of the way 35psi front / 38psi rear Car is 100% stock Filled up with 0% ethanol gasoline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Charlie Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I was getting 21-22 until I started working on mileage. I slapped in an UltraGauge, went up 5psi all around, and over the winter got LRR tires in a 50 instead of a 45. Other than that it's stock. I use 91 or 93 depending on which gas station I'm at, and we're in 10% ethanol country. My last three tanks average just under 33 mpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackWagon GT Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 About 80 miles on the highway right after a fill-up with 92 netted 27ish indicated; another 30 off the highway dropped that down to mid-26. These MPG gauges seem to be optimistic; my calculated mileage when I filled was about 0.7 below what the dash read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarnaud Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Any tips for improving mileage? I get 18 average driving like a g-ma. 16 mpg having some fun. I would like to get mid-20's like some on here,.. I know my 5EAT doesn't help, but I have extra air in the tires, 36/34 psi and use good 91 octane gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCHM1AN Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Change all the fluids, plugs, etc in your car and keep up with maintenance. Over the past 1-3/4 years I've owned my car, I've seen the mileage rise from the same seasons, year to year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgt_nube Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Don't know how to fix yours, but just confirming that it seems that something is off. My 2005 LGT 5EAT Wagon, all stock and using California gas (91 I think), gets 21 mpg in all-suburban (mostly conservative) driving including lots of hills and 28 cruising at 65+ mph on the freeway.
