I run a 50/50 mix of city and highway and by the end of pretty much every tank, the DIC shows around 14.5. I'm pretty sure I could get better mileage out of it but it's Hylton's fault - he told me to drive the snot out of it or it'd start acting like a pansy!

My mileage is improving every day. On the weekend, I was travelling 115kph for an extended period - 8.7L per 100km!!! And it only has 850 km on the engine. The week before I was averaging about 10.5L per 100km on the highway at about 119kph.

Jeez... some of you are getting awesome mileage...

I'm driving LS3 at 900km's , getting about 18 L / 100km... mixed city/highway. :( Running on 91 octane which is costing about 80 bucks a tank. Noooot.. cool...

And I am not driving abusive whatsoever.

Just reset the consumption counter often and drive steady at 130,120,110,100,90kph for at least 5 minutes and see highway driving consumption:range should be 11 to 7,5 l / 100km for the SS in 5th or 6th gear (LS3)

Forget about it in city or if accelerating hard , consumption goes from14 to ....who cares, its only for a few seconds anyway.........
