Is that the typical fuel economy that you guys get?.. for the past 3 tanks ive been measuring and its been around 250 per 13-14 gallons.... i have intake and pulleys.. does that have effect on MPG?

 

That sounds about right. I'm stock and get around 20mpg with a mix of freeway and suburban streets.

 

Correctomundo!!! Same mileage here. I find it hard not to stomp on the gas when I take off...

 

24.7 is my best, 19 is my usual. I like to floor it about 1-2 times a day and I usually see north of 5000 several times a day. It's hard not to... I figure it's not worth it to save a few bucks on gas since I pay $1.36 per gallon at Price Club ($145-$1.55 is normal range in San Diego.

I have the CAI but I don't see much difference in mpg.

 

$1.17 here in fresno =)

 

damn and i thought it couldn't get any better with $1.23 for 91 octane in socal... and a record breaking $0.99 for 87 octane

 

i found a few places for 95 cents for 87 octane... 1.17 for 91 =)

 

$1.22 for 93 octane....

 

Damn, that's hella cheap...Premium here is like $1.59 lowest. I spent about $40 a week on gas.

BTW, nice to meet another khmer Acura owner...

 

20 in town, 27-29 highway. I wind it often.

 

Damn! You guys are killing me. 92 octane at $1.45

 

I get awesome gas milage. From full to empty, I get about 340 miles.

 

Better check that actuator and make sure your vtec is working. Either that or you drive downhill all the time. My best tank ever was 365. The light wasn't on but it was close. And that was all highway.

 

I race all the time, and even when I'm not....I tend to have a lead foot, and I get around 315 miles to the tank. I don't think my actuator has problems cause I am racing and I seem to win all the time.

 

I guess my car has a light pedal. If I don't see 200 on a 1/2 tank I take it easy on the rest. I get about 28 mpg. 60/40 highway/city. On roadtrips I get about 31.:P

 

I was getting ready to start a new topic when I saw this one. I thought there was something wrong with my car. Now I know there is. I went on a trip for Thanksgiving. On the way back I got stopped in traffic for an hour and a half, but I still got 37 MPG!!! I figured I would have gotten real close to 40 if it weren't for the traffic. I normally get 25 in town (not much stopping, ~35 miles). Has anyone else gotten mileage like this? And yes my actuator does work, I checked it.

I think you better check sometihing. The most anyone has reported here is 31+ MPG on non stop Interstate.

 

What should I check? I had 300+ miles at a half tank.

 

That you were looking at the right trip meter? That someone didn't put in a couple of gallons of gas while you weren't looking? Not saying it couldn't happen, but I haven't heard of anything near that number. If you drained the tank that would be 32 MPG
(17.2 gallon capacity), but I assume you're saying it only took 14.5 gallons to refil.

 

Did you get the Canadian version of the CL-S? Our instrument cluster is metric - kilometers - 300 is about what I see at the 1/2 tank point. (which is not half the tank - the bottom 1/2 is a much smaller "1/2" - no?)

BTW: In pseudo-controlled conditions (ie: always the same pump at the same gas station, fill till the autoshutoff, no extra) I seem to be consistently getting about 21-22 mpg (US) mixed freeway/city driving. And I like VTEC!

 

This was all highway miles. NO Vtec at all. I left in the morning set the cruise so I was turning 2000 RPM or a little under. 540 miles later I pulled in next to the house to fill up. If I remember right I put in a little over 14 gallons. My Dad got 36 MPG in his TL this summer.

 

I used to regularly get 330-340 miles per tankfull and averaged about 24.5 MPG. For the last two tankfulls (with the sticky Toyos) my fuel economy is worse...I have averaged about 22 MPG.

 

380+ miles on one tank!
On a road trip to solvang, CA.
31.4mpg!

 

I'm 400-425 per tank on the highway (16 gal tank).
