Default gas mileage?

I'm getting ready to do a swap in my 91 HB. I already have a ZC but it just isn't enough power. thinking b16 becuase it is in my price range. Just wondering what kinda mileage you guys get with the b16. I drive close to 150 miles a day for work and they pay me by the mile so the better mileage I get the more money goes in my pocket. Thanks in advance!!

Eric

Before I ironed out all my issues with the MAP sensor on my LS swap I was getting about 8-10mpg. Funny how fast you go through an 11 gallon tank getting less than ten mpg (actually it made me cry).

25/32 unless I'm in vtec a lot. Depends how you drive, and make sure your o2's are working properly. For the longest time I was only getting 20/25, then I fixed my o2's.

Thanks for all the reply's they really help. I was just curious cause my boy only gets like 17 on the highway with his b16. Glad to hear they aren't all like that.

Thanks,

Eric

I get like 34 in my ZC on the highway and about 29 city. I'm hoping the new b16 gets about the same.
