August 18, 200817 yr 287 miles today, all through the mountains. 255K miles on a '86 GL wagon, 4wd, 5 spd, carbed [sorry GD]. 107 degrees out with 3% humidity. I drove it like it was 107 too. 65mph was pretty much max. That would be max on these roads on a cool day as well though. 30MPG!!!!
August 18, 200817 yr 30 mpg... My car is a piece of turd. It gets 20-22 and thats if i drive like grandma!!!! way to go subie
August 18, 200817 yr Turbo's are not known for their mileage. I get about 19 in town on my SS. About 25 on the freeway. Even the brand new STi's are rated at 17 in the city GD
August 18, 200817 yr I got around 28mpg in my RX coming back from the Show today. And its running like crap
August 18, 200817 yr No boost means no boost enrichment. Heh. GD Running 13lbs of boost. Keeping your foot out if is what saves gas :-p
August 18, 200817 yr Keeping your foot out if is what saves gas :-p Yeah - on a big turbo (for the engine size) you can do that. With the VF11 on the 22T it spools if a fly lands on your foot. Hell the thing will spool all by itself when the cruise control starts pulling a hill GD
August 18, 200817 yr ... Keeping your foot out if is what saves gas :-p True! ... Absolutely! Why don`t you Post your Subie`s Mileage, here: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=90087
August 18, 200817 yr 31.5 MPG, in my 84 Brat, 288K miles on carbed engine, new 5 sp. conversion. Did about 700 miles total to WCSS and ocean trek, cost me about $90 in gas for the trip. Yes, it is good...
