Well, iv had a jdm dohc zc in my crx for about 3-4 months now.... Well my question is what kind of gas mileage should I be getting? Normally I get around 26 mpg...shouldn't it be more around 30-32? And ill be boosted soon so i want to get the best mpg as possible... Help me out on what to do thanks

 

bump. does anybody know the average miles per gallon for the jdm dohc zc?

 

i dont know

 

dunno.. i drive mine flat out 99% of the time lol

 

what tranny and final drive do you have?

 

its the stock tranny that came with the engine. every think is stock for now. and i think my final drive is 3.880

 

A way you can find out, is fill you up your tank, and reset your mile marker and look how many miles you drive untill its empty :]

 

SOHC ZC. ~35.

I got 32 last time I filled up and that was after the track.

lean is less fuel more air, rich is more gas i know im right, but maybe he is also?

my DOHC ZC gets 30mpg but thats with o2 sensor cloged and shifting at about 3500 to 4k

 

It also depends on your ECU, fuel injectors, FPR, idle speed, O2 sensor and how you're driving. I get around 30 when I do mostly hwy driving, more like 25 when I'm in the city.
