What kind of Gas Mileage are you getting?
I will be boosting very soon with a fully built LS. I will be using a GSR tranny. I haven't quite decided on which engine management to get yet. Here's my setup.
Please post up how much gas mileage you get in city/highway. And give a brief summary of your setup and be sure to include which EMS.

highway-best i have seen so far was 35.5

Re: (tnt-gsr)
I use Uberdata. Combined city / highway driving yields about 19 mpg boosting sometimes.
It's a gsr engine with drag turbo kit. 750cc injectors.

ems won't decide your gas milage....how its tuned and how you drive it and how much your in boost will decide that

34-36mpg highway, 30-32 city. these numbers are with daily WOT runs for fun, although no racing.

Ditto, EMS has nothing to do with it but if you must know, I use Crome Pro with RC 750's on a GSR cammed 9:1 B16 and an SC6176E and rock around 25 to the gallon all city.
I don't drive like an idiot though.

Re: What kind of Gas Mileage are you getting? (0x64)
mine sucks since my retune.. I log my mileage everytime i fill up and w/ mostly city and some hwy drving, I've gottn only aboyt 23.5 mpg.. that's w/ no boosing either.. I usually fill up around 200 miles and it takes about 8.5 gals to top it off..
On my old tune, I think i was around 27mpg city and about 31-33 all hwy.. I"ve yet to do an all hwy drive to see what this new tune nets me..
my setup:
84.5mm gsr
hondata w/ 750cc's
t3t67

My Carburated 87 CRX barely knocks down 41 mpg. Thats feathering the gas at 40~ mph and coasting with the engine off a lot. I dont see how you get 39 out of a z6 with a heavier chassis. Crazy!

. I think it's because I have to redline the b*tch anytime I wanna pick up a bit of speed...slow crap.

Isn't it sweet to be able to say you have 452whp and get gas mileage comparable to a hybrid?
