Year/Model: '02 WRX 5mt

Modifications: APS turboback exhaust (catless), Vishnu uppipe (catless), Silencer delete mod

Octane: 93

Mileage: 300 per tank, about 20mpg

This is mostly city driving, usually shifting at around 3500 rpms, usually. hehe
Oh, another thing to note, I live in Texas where it get's really hot, my gas mileage is much worse when I need to use the A/C, like about 50 miles less per tank.

 

That is not too shabby at all. When do you shift?

A Little off topic

... but there is a good article on the current sports compact car magazine in regards to octane. its worth a look.

i will soon have a mileage to post.

 

'03 WRX - I get about 305 miles on 93 octane. It's pretty hilly around me too. And I do random 1-2hr. bone cruises a lot.

 

Model: 03 WRX sedan
Gas: 91 76/Chevron
Miles/tank: 20.3 mpg
Mods: Vishnu uppipe & TBE, samco intercooler hoses

Here's my excel spreadsheet showing my mileage since I've owned the car. It has stayed consistant even after the mods. My worst is about 18 mpg and my best is around 26 mpg.

 

Your an engineer right?

 

How'd you guess? Amazing what you can accomplish with a little "free time" at work!

 

Miles to the tank should be some where in the 300's. So how many miles did u go? Or (since I'm a legacy owner) how big is the WRX tank?

 

Year/Model: 02 WRX
Gas: 91 Costco
Mods: Zero sports intake pipe, Helix catless flex up-pipe, ScoobySport DP, stock 3rd cat, Blitz Nur-Spec touring Cat-back, COBB Stg 2.
Miles/tank: 25 mpg
Type of driving: Mostly freeway (70/30)

 

If I wait until the gas light comes on I pump about 13.5 gallons which comes out to about 275 miles on average. The most miles I have gone on a tank was around 350 and the least was around 250.

The most important number is the mpg b/c that number can be compared to any car regardless of tank size.

 

yeah, I feel ya, I was just curious the size of the tank. I averaged 27.3-27.5 on my last two trips, mostly freeway. ('04 Legacy)

 

Those are great numbers! The WRX's mileage is highly dependent on how often you boost and is horrible for short trips or stop-n-go traffic. I drive in traffic almost every day, so my mileage suffers. I heard that modded WRXs with a custom tune (i.e. ecutek reflash) will get better mileage...driven conservatively of course!
