After my vf39 install n tune Ive been gettin about 16mpg before when I was running stage 2 I was getting about 18mpg...I do push my car once in a while but i think my car is running pretty rich because my bumper where my exhaust is full of blk exhaust. what can i do to improve my mpg? should i just buy more parts n get a retune?

 

ur MPG sucks in city driving or highway driving

 

mainly city

 

cause u suck

 

I'm sure a tune would help if you haven't gotten one since gettin the turbo. There are a couple bolt ons that can help but its mostly just stuff to reduce rotational mass, crank pulley, driveshaft, lightened wheels.

 

gotta make sacrifices in life my friend

 

tuned by mike at gst and i have pulley

 

easy on the gas.

 

haha.


i get 21-22. mixed both city and freeway every tank

 

06 WRX TR get from 260-310 miles to a tank depends on my driving. average about 20mpg with city and highway

 

i average 18-20 on a stage 3 setup. highway was closer to 28-30. you might want to get a better tune. you shouldn't be getting the black bumper. you are running too rich. wasting gas

 

I also average around 16 MPG with my VF34. But I do alot of city driving. Something we gotta live with.

 

I've gotten as low as 15mpg when my WRX was stock. How you drive effects the MPG as much as mods.

If you love the RPMs that have boost, the MPG goes down.

 

I get 16 mpg in SF and 18 mpg on freeway commutes lol

 

Do you have a bov?
