Jetta 1.4 tsi with dsg. I'm surprised as I actually get the manufacturer's specs in terms of fuel economy.

So this week I started driving at 90km keeping my rpm under 2800 as much as I could. From 350km mileage went to 520 and still not close to gas light. Prev Avg was 135 ish with a lot of hard accelerating. Smh slow driving from now on yes. Hunjed super and I good for a few days now. Just the footcramp to deal with and yes is slow lane im on.

I make about up to 120km/hr at 3k rpm on a 99 civic 3stage vtec (D15z7), eco mode nah. Most i ever get was 640 km per 45L tank super gas (ac on 40% of the time).

Sport mode is a diff story doh, does use it only a few seconds to overtake so i can't calculate that easy.

Average speed on highway is 80km/hr @ 2000-2500 rpm so the lean burn mode activates most if the time. No a/c doh, don't really use it unless other people in d car.

It is a foreign used engine. ... Had it for about 6 yrs...It's a carburetor engine and my foot is usually on the floor in every gear (its a 1.3 so it really doesn't go). Pushing the gas pedal pumps fuel directly into the intake runners ... Burn baby burn :grin:

Btw.... Want to know what was some of the worst mpg tuners have gotten from their vehicles. ...:smile:

Car working good. :)

That tank will take about $95.00 super and that's real pushing it. Will get you over 400km proper.
