Fuel Milage

Crzycrazycarl · #1 Sun, January 25th, 2009, 07:23 PM

So, I am seriously consindering buying one of these php chips. What kind of fuel milage can I expect with the fuel sipper mode. I am running a straight pipe and have a k &n air filter. Any help is appreciated.

It's all up to the driver. I never had good economy because it felt WAY to good to push that skinny pedal to the floor!

My wife tends to get worse mileage than I do. Then again, she owns a 92 Subaru Loyale (maybe 60 HP) and LOVES to feel the rush of powah that the PSD affords. I've never really had a gutless vehicle so I can't feel her pain...although I get so frustrated when I have to drive her car.

As far as mileage on a 94-97 PSD goes, it's not uncommon to gain 3-4 MPG highway. I tuned a 97 Manual that went from 14 to 18 (when driven nicely) and have a couple copies of that tune running around at this time. If you're driving around town or have a heavy right foot then all bets are off!

My last vehicle was a 84 honda accord...
I mash my pedal at least once a trip... usually more LOL

2-4 mpg is pretty good.
