Hi everyone! This is my first time doing a forum, and I am very excited to learn new things. I own an Acura RSX, and am relatively new at driving manual (about 2.5 years). Any advice on how to pick up speed faster, without burning too much gas?

welcome to the forum
The realistic answer to your question is: buy an Electric car.
For normal gas powered cars, faster acceleration = burning more gas in any car, that is because that is how you get the faster acceleration in the first place.

As already stated - acceleration and fuel burning are opposites. One goes up, the other goes down.

You can minimize the gas burning effect by learning how to shift at the right rpm. It takes more experience and practice.
