What is everyone getting for mileage on the highway? Out of vtec...

thx, Chris

 

well, i don't know about mpg but i drive about 300 miles on each tank before i have to fill it up again, i guess i could do the math, but it's not that important. It's not like i'm going to sell my Si because of the mpg

i am gettin around 22 in town and some highway and i am constantly at 7,000-8,000 rpms, i bought the car for the vtec and i like to use it.

 

Just wanted to make sure people were getting over 30 on highway....its a pretty big spread on the epa readings for city vs. highway. I want it for a commuter/reliability and I want over 30mpg....otherwise I would just buy an evo or an sti...

Thanks for the feed back guys!!

 

I seem to be getting pretty good on highway, people are saying they are getting 30-32 highway, im pretty sure im getting around 36-38. But typically I ride on cruise and don't do much throttle alteration.

 

How long are your drives usually? Any traffic?

Honda gasoline motors usually don't have much trouble getting better than the sticker MPG when they get into real world.

Hell, I get 31 mpg on a big 6-6 Accord.

 

im getting bout 320miles per tank but iono how much gallon is in a tank soo yea its all good

 

It's 13.2 gal so you'd be getting 24mpg. It all comes down to driving habits and conditions, plus all cars are different.

 

Okay, I have an intake on mine but I noticed last week while driving from VA that I hit 200 miles at the half way mark. I was driving during the early morning, all highway, averageing around 70 mph and I was using cruise control the majority of the time.

From full to half goes down much more slowly than from half to the fuel light.

I get about 50-75 more miles from full to half then I do from half to light (empty) on my RSX.
