Ive just worked mine out..

I think I do on average about 80 miles a week, I normaly put in £25.00 Shell V-Power a week and it lasts me the full 7 days then the light comes on :down:

Anyway I think thats about 18mpg...not 100% as my speedo plays up and I dont know how many miles I do exactly but its going to be around the 80-100 mark.

18mpg Not good haha!

Ive got a decat and a 3" system along with mushroom filter, would a remap at somewhere like FC-Tuning improve the mpg a bit? as im hoping to get one next year.

So whats everyones mpg?

Hi

From my recent trip to Poland (Glasgow,UK - Opole,Poland) my best result was 25mpg (like 9,5 - 10 liters per 100km). It was on german motorways doing 80 -90 mph.

Again - german motorways at night - it went up to 13 - 14 liters per 100km with my foot down :)

Did a bit of calcuation and it gives out around £20 per 100miles, too.

Funny this thread has come up, just been trying to see what I can get the mpg up to so last tank running on vpower I managed 31.2mpg (running around 300bhp), was basicaly 85% motorway miles and probably 70-80 max, taking it easy on gearchanges, hardly went on boost at all. 352miles in 51.2L well impressed

I can never be bothered to work it out properly, but since the remap I get about 150 miles out of £30 or v-power. I'm runing about 360bhp though, and that's mostly motorway miles. Also I have my lamba sensor turned off, so that makes it drink more.

300 miles to a tank (£58) give or take 20 miles probably - and I live on an island with no motorways!

Thats a tuned down stage 3a - 315bhp.

Me too:

£10 = 50 miles
£20 = 100 miles
£30 = 150 miles

I never fill full tank as somehow I never have the money even though I keep filling up £30's worth every 3 to 4 days lmao :wack:

i can average 24mpg with a mix of hard whupping and the gentle cruise to work of a morning. somewhere around 330miles to a full tank. 300(ish)bph on a custom remap...

I've had over 30 on a motorway run, average around 20 and used a whole tank on a trackday last year which we worked out to be around 8mpg including warm up/cool down laps. So driving style and conditions has a lot to do with it!

WTF who cares about mpg when you have an S15, I've never even bothered to work mine out.

That way i never think about how much driving it will ever cost.

worked out my last £20 was getting me 80 miles this equals 22mpg @ £1.25 a litre of the high octane variety but i was drifting and some speed work on a private road of course and then going steady aswell.. long motorway miles i think it would see 30mpg pretty easily while cruising..
