Grrrr, why can't I get that? I'm lucky to get 30 most of the time, normally about 28. And thats almost all highway. Somehow I got a hole in the exhuast and I get around 23 or so now.

Oh well.

I NEVER got 35MPG when I had a stock SI motor. About 31-32MPG on long trips is the best I ever saw. My B-motors actually do better.

I just finished a trip with about 300 highway miles, and the rest city in my 1990 Civic Wagon DPFI, and got around 38mpg. I was amazed because I seldom do mu highway driving and get around 30.

Well, I get around 300miles per tank with my B16. I used to get around 330 with the DX motor.

Your 35mpg is cool, man. Don't let these guys tell you otherwise.

Don't believe alot of these guys saying they get 45mpg on their 12second daily drivers, some people can't add to save their life and others are just straight up liars.
