If economy is a concern, you shouldn't have bought a 3500 pound turbocharged vehicle. FWIW, keep it stock except for a custom tune, and ask for leaner maps rather than more power. The rest comes from "adding lightness" as Jason said, or simply driving slower.

 

exhaust help a lot for me, after i got my vishnu turbo back i got about 2-3 more MPG. I went 380 on 14.5 gallons and not all of it was freeway even.

 

^^^^^ Lucky basta*rd.

haha yeah i thought so too

 

please do tell in more detail of how you did it. somes a little too out of reach, but thats just me. if it really works that well, i wanna try it. 2.12 a gallon gets to ya after a while.

 

so far, now that i have by baja, I have been getting ~20MPG so far and I am not too hard of a driver. If I keep it in Drive and not sport shift I have been getting consistantly 21mpg, but if I take it into sport shift I have been getting about 19.5mpg.

That's not bad considering the extra weight the Baja is carrying around.

 

Just broke 300 miles per tank this week with the STi. All highway.
