im with you,.....im lucky to see 15mpg period! i do roughly 45miles per day to and from work. most the drive is a 10mile stretch without lights or stop signs. the rest is highway. some city driving after work its really more like 13mpg...i just feel better saying 15. sigh!

i know man, i cannot figure out why its running so rich. at idle my car is sitting a 11.9-12.2 afr's,cruising while cold is pegged out rich. However once the engine warms up it jumps to 14.5-15.7 at idle and 12.4 under boost. oh well. Nice to know im not alone.

LOL, well the old ones were bad so it was neccesary to list what i replaced and what is done to the engine.


Im still batteling a rich running condition......getting like -+15 city mpg and like 35 hwy.:o


I have a T28 with 550cc injectors (52lb). Got around 16 city, haven't tested highway. With BB T25 and 370cc got 16 city and 30 highway after some tuning.

I think I may know why, what ECU are you running. Better yet what Tune?

I drive my VET-powered HNP11 every day, have put about 16,000km on it in a year. Do everything with it - track days, rush hour to work, 5 people + luggage up to the skifields, gravel bashing, long trips, towing the boat, motorbikes and S15's... it's very versatile, which is one of its most endearing traits.

Weird... People have been getting over 30+ mpg... I have yet to get higher than 27mpg on the highway and 23-24mpg combined with a T25 w/ JWT.

As I learned it's hard on a T25. The car would be in boost every single hill. Being in boost = bad MPG.

T25's spool at like 2500 depending on the set-up right?
