sup guyz i was just wondering what mpg u guyz are getting w/ ur turbo cars.. i had a full tank last night and today after only about 75 miles its half way

does timing have anything do to w/ it? cuz i know i need to adjust my timing.. the fmu has a 10:1 disc. fuel pump is 255.. TIA.

 

tuning, get some real ems and get it tuned. I was getting around 20-22 mpg, with the occasional gunning it here and there.

 

hows that FMU working out for ya

 

It could be the fuel pump. I installed it on my bone stock car and bam my wideband was reading in the 10's and 11's at idle! I am running Uberdata so I just pulled out some fuel in the fuel maps and it fixed it. It seems to be hit or miss with the FPR's. Some can handle the extra load and some like ours can't and deliver a lot of fuel pressure. Like RotiEatter said get some real EMS and find out what's going on. then you can adjust it.

BTW does it smell like your running really rich?

 

hmm hows uberdata workin out for u guyz? last time i ran uberdata on my sohc vtec turbo didnt run to well.. doesnt smell like im running rich.. everything is kew..

can timing be the problem too? i havent done my timing since i swap in my motor.. i just guessed.

 

wideband tuning fixed my mpg

btw I run uberedata 1.66666666666 something

 

Uberdata is working flawlessly for me and getting better gas mileage then I did N/A.

Timing shouldn't be an issue since it only changes in boost and that's not were you loose gas. It the daily "in vaccum" driving that effects gas mileage. Stock settings should work out fine at 16* I think.

When I was running rich in the 11's and stuff I had no smoke either I just smelled the gas a little and my mileage was horrible 100 miles and I had to fill up...no joke! Anyways does your car stink? Just get Uberdata it's so cheap and will do better then your current FMU setup.

 

damn 150 a full tank of 11 gallons

 

im getting shat mileage as well, but thats my tuning problems, im running like 11.5-12:1 a/f in vacuum i keep forgetting to burn a a new chip in uberdata with it leaned out in vac.

 

are you scared or something...remember to take off fuel entire rows or colums at a time and not just a few cells. Also 10% is<U>ABOUT</U> 1.0 A/F difference. I had to knock 30% off my idle just becuase of the fuel pump since I was running in the 11's...now I'm at 14.6-15.2 depending on weather conditions so that's pretty good. TUNE IT

 

man..friday night before i left out to the meet i had a full tank...by the time i got home i was below half..fmu's chug the gas

 

tell me about it.. i only have a 10:1 disc too arggh...

 

GSR motor with Drag III kit, running 450cc injectors and Chrome chip. Cruising to work at 80mph daily for 40-50 miles one way. 29-31 mpg. If i run into some other cars taht wanna play, more like low 20's mpg. Uberdata should do wonders for you.

 

ThreadJack:

What's everyone else's tank netting them these days?

I get 225-250 if I'm doing a lot of mixed driving / beating...

I can most of the time get 300 highway... Uberdata + setup in sig, untuned 'cept by me .... (dsm450s)

 

b18c1 Boosted, was running Uberbase map and got like a 10-12MPG!!

I had the idle leaned out ALOT and others, and did a semi TUNE (5hr tune?) Being as I am, having no experience or prior knowledge to tune. Just learn, trial and error with just the wideband and viola! 25-28 MPG city driving (constantly gassing/flooring it!!)

Tune it. ^_~

 

230-260 miles per tank right now, i still have a bunch of tuning to do in the vacuum part of the map, boost is between 10.5 - 11:1, so im kinda happy with that, may lean it out too 11.5:1 or so later down the road

what ems? and motor/turbo setup? i might go uberdata and i will need a basemap can anyone hook me up w/ a good base map for my ls turbo?&gt;

 

didn't you just get this setup running not too long ago? I bet it's just your heavy foot using all the gas
seriously, out of the "150" you said, about how much of that is under boost?

 

When I had fmu (12:1) + inline pump I could still hit 200+ miles/tank. And that's w/ moderate boosting.

No boost and I've seen 37mpg before...

 

I never understand why people need base maps....MAybe I'm missing something, but all you have to do is take the stock map and adjust it for the new injecotrs or map sensor or whatever then add 120% fuel in boost and the timing to .8. This makes the car run rich and conservative in boost right? Then all you have to do is take out fuel until the esired a/f and when you dyno you can tune the timing as well right? Isn't that a basemap....why use someone elses when your own is better for your car anyway? Just curious

 

190-200 (street) miles per tank/300+ a tank (freeway) on a 10:1 FMU and MSD Fuel Pump (High-Flow). Great Freeway Mileage.. **** street mileage.

 

I'm getting 27-30 MPG using TurboEdit

260-320 miles per tank

haha thats the thing my turbo hits full boost at 2.5-3k rpm's when i try to drive normal its tooo slow.. i slow traffic down. if i dont wanna hit boost i have to shift at about 1.8k rpm's what do i do? i still havent done my timing

 

hmm it might be my heavy foot.. imma try to stay in vacuum alot this tank around and see how it goes
