ARGGHHH!!!

Do we really need 10 "What's your MPG?" threads every week?

Here's the summary: 24-30ish, unless you've got serious mods or serious problems.

LOL.. whilst on the subject of petrol consumption (again!), I'm interested to hear of your experiences whilst using high octane fuel (optimax here in the uk). Some users have reported getting superior milage aswell as performance, when compared to normal octane petrol.

Have you experimented with this, and what where your findings? It would be interesting to establish whether the alleged increase in milage is not only true, but economical (high octane fuel is marginally more expensive here in the uk at £1 a litre, $1.78).

Mike.

What do you consider "high octane" fuel? I burn 93 octane in my Prelude. You should get the highest possible (Premium in your area or whatever you call it over there), but anything over 94 is probably a waste.
