Default 15 miles per gallon with my civic.

Yes that's how much my ej1 gets. Can anyone troubleshoot. I only have an intake and muffler no pipes.

Also check for clogged air filter and bad Engine Coolant Temp sensor.

Don't forget the O2 sensor, but it wouldn't cause that much of a problem. Holy ****.

Holy **** seriously? I never knew they had that much impact! I figured they'd cause 5-10%, but not 50%. nuts
