Gas Mileage

Well you can have great mileage and have plenty of hp to go along with it. Maxthe7man gets 28-30 mpg with his single turbo T2 and I'm guessing he has somewhere near 400rwhp. Amazing what you can do with a haltech and a wide band o2 meter.

Mine is a single turbo TII (engine). With the smaller turbo (stock) you'll use more fuel after some mods than you would with a larger turbo upgrade. Once the boost comes on your fuel goes alot quicker.
Mine has been tuned a month ago by Rice Racing, and actually got better... It used to be worse than it is now. I must admit that I might be getting slightly better than I first thought. I've been driving the car all week and I'd actually guess that when driving normally, I'd be closer to 300kms per tank in the city.
I would partially blame my old Microtech Digi 1 computer though. A newer Microtech or a Haltech would probably improve it heaps.

I don't think he is tuning with the WB when he is getting that 28-30mpg though. The narrow band I would think would be a better tuning aid when shooting for ~ 14.7 AFR to get that ultra high MPG.
