Wow! A 65:1 fuel ratio would be great on the highway.
BTW AzNxJ32Aspec, they aren't talking about a compression ratio. They're talkling about air/fuel ratio. The J32A2 engine (below VTEC) is up around 14-15:1 (nice and lean) and drops to around 10-11:1 while in VTEC (=gas hog while in VTEC).

that engine makes about 160hp and 138lbs of toque if anyone was curious. i guess that is highoutput for a 4 banger. if that engine was in a civic maybe but not even a TSX would be happy driving with that engine. i dunno the gas mileage you would get on that car but i bet it would be around then 40mpg area.

hell the civic's are already at 32/39 mileage rated.. if that took it from 40:1 to 65:1, I'd hope you see more improvement than that.
Tho the Si engine is already at 160HP.
