22.9 is the best I can get on the freeway.

Saltyflats · 06-14-2011, 06:36 PM

Yes, it is insane...

AlohaBR · 06-14-2011, 07:41 PM

I get 24-25mpg HWY cruising at 70mph in an automatic, before and after doing 12.1 runs at the track.

That's with the bolt-ons, plus 3.45 M6 gears (vs. 3.27 A6) plus 3200 stall plus 25% underdrive pulley. And that's verified multiple times on the gauge and at the fill-up vs. miles.

Wow thanx the reply.
I live In NYC. And the reason I asked is because my fuel
Level is below 27miles and I can't tell what's left. So I basically coasted my commute 14 miles each way. So basically how far can a gallon get you?

On a 200 mile trip home today, with cruise set at 74, I got 25.5.
