I'd like to see what others are getting too.

88 CRX Si w/modified B16A, around 220 miles per tank assuming 12 Gal tank. With the gauge on E i put in 8 Gal and the pump stopped so there must have been another 4 gal in the tank. Car is on the rich side...not sure how far though.

I get around 25-27 MPG on city driving on my Boosted B16 and around 30-32 MPG on the freeway.

The best gas mileage that I had ever had in my CRX was 36MPG, this is pure Highway. (Long ago when I had the FMU setup)

Remember if your Vtec and boost does not kick in your in the clear. Once Vtec hits your car is drinking gas but with both combined then the engine is just guzzling it down like it's all good.

1991 B18A (stock)
PR4 ECU (un-chipped)
1991 CRX Si chassis (suspension mods)
and I can get 290 miles consistently and only have to put in about 9 gallons, so about 32-33 mpg. I drive HWY and city for my commutes.

So 30mpg isnt that great of gas miliage? What are you smoking? The best I have gotten with my B20 and PR4 ECU is 29.7mpg around town. I could of babied it a bit more and gotten 30, but whats the fun in that? hahah Fuel pressure was is at 37psi. Tires at 33psi. 36psi on a hot summer day.

I went to Niagara a month ago in my D16Z6 DX tranny beater and I got 42.5mpg. A couple of weeks later my fuel pump went out. So I really don't know if that was typical or if it was allready not putting out enough fuel. I will let you know the number soon as I empty a tank on my new walbro pump.
