Please List mods (if u want to) and then list how many MILES you get to one tank of gas on average. i do a mix of city and highway and only get 200 miles to a tank with

Stage 2
GMPP Exhaust
AEM dryflow with k&N pipe.

My DIC says i should be getting like 250-275 on one tank but it doesnt even come close.

 

usually 270

 

Yeah, when I gas up I always reset everything, and the DIC always says 256mi left.

Depending how I drive, I'll get about 175--210. I do lots of city driving so its harder for me to get a lot out of it.

That is still better than my old 2.2 cavalier though. I used to get about 225mi AT BEST out of a 14 gallon tank. Our is what, 12 gallons?

Overall its not bad. I think wed have to do all highway to ever touch that 256mi limit though.

 

Holy hell, normally I see over 300 to a tank, easily, usually it's around 320 to a tank, mix city/highway. That's with intake and exhaust.

With the damn watered down winter gas around here I'm only seeing about 285-290 per tank.

 

270 with all that stuff you have on ? well thats why i liked this kit frank if i am getting 70 miles less then you some else is wrong and it would explain why my car didnt like the 60's before. but that why i like this kit frank it takes 45 mins to put it back. i am taking it the dealer tomorrow. i wrote up a list of things to look at anything else .

• Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace if necessary
• Inspect fuel lines for cracks, leaks, or pinches
• Check the fuel pressure at the fuel rail
• Check the fuel injectors
• Check for an exhaust leak before the first oxygen sensor
• Physically check all o2 Sensors and Catalytic Converter for damage.
• Replace all 4 Tires

 

i usually get from 250-350 miles a tank depending on how i drive

 

what octane gas do you use..?? (Will)

also, how far away is work..?
my mpg decreased when I moved closer...by 8 mpg

 

93 and it doesnt seem to change ive used Shell, Exxon , BP and my gas mileage doesnt change much.

The MAF was clean a week ago when i changed to a Dryflow. not sure about the MAP. When Joshes MAP went bad he couldnt read boost. i still can. about 15 - 20 miles

 

his map went bad after we removed his psi-fi kit...we cut a wire

read the rest of my post up there, I added something

 

15 to 20 miles good road Va beach Blvd to Oceana Blvd.

 

I bet its more like 5, maybe 6
aren't there a lot of lights..?
when I drove from suffolk, I got awesome mileage...when I moved to p-town, it dropped 8mpg

 

Check tire pressure !!!

I was getting lower MPG too and since the cold weather hit I hadn't checked tire pressures ( too lazy and always on the go...) but when I did most were 3-5lbs low...Aired 'em up to 32psi and MPG in the DIC went up. Don't take much w/ low profile tires to make a huge difference, the TBSS's tires were only low by 2 pounds and she lost .7 MPG...went from14.5 to 13.8-13.9MPG, so check tire pressure first...

 

good point, often overlooked.

 

i get around 270 MPG. but thats with almost no highway travel

 

i normally get 250-290 if i push it

 

yeah some but thats not the only place i go unless i take 264 e. i did check tire pressure i belive the side of said 32 psi that usally what i try to have it at

 

I usually get around 250 - 280 per tank with the mods listed below.

 

Mods in sig.. I normally get about 190-220 miles before I have to fill up.

I have to jack up the front end and check my air filter to check my air filter, and when the snow melts I have to get the air compressor and check the PSI.

 

is that city or a mix of city/highway

 

straight city, i never get on the highway anymore.

 

2.2

catback
xtc dp/hi flow cat
airbox mod w/k&n

when i fill up my DIC says about 300 miles, but i normally get anywhere from 260 to over 300 depending on how i'm driving. Avg. MPG is usually between 26-28 for mixed driving conditions.

 

holy hell 190-220??? i would def. say that you may need that tune! lol i need to check my filter soon too. But i heard that the gas stations goto a winter blend when it gets colder out. and are you a "spirited" driver? I am pretty heavy on the pedal especially at stop signs. i usually get 210-230 in this weather and 270-300 in anything above 50* weather. Im hoping that when i get my tune and crap installed the MPG will get better when i dont floor it.

 

Yea, I'm a "spirited" driver. I enjoy the sound of the engine whining and the exhaust waking up elderly people.

 

I have a realy mix i do some city some highway , sometimes i drive like im the the Indy 500 and others i drive like a granny

 

I have the stage II kit on my 06 SS/SC and I get about 270 miles/tankful. Most of it is city driving. Some of the driving is aggressive with high RPMs, but for routine commuting, I shift very early, drive smooth, maintain momentum and try to time the lights. That way, I make up for those fun 7k shifts from 2nd to 3rd on freeway on ramps.
