Gas Mileage
#3
Really I was just looking for people to post what kinda mileage they were getting in their cars.
The car I'm hopefully getting (87 Turbo II) has a large street port, hi flow cat, custom intake, upgraded injectors, light weight flywheel, metal TID, and a r/b downpipe (prolly)
Oh yeah, engine is newly rebuilt (around 200 miles). And actually I was hoping to get an idea of what kinda gas mileage I would get when pushing it hard and when cruising.

12 mpg. I **** you not. This was cruising @ 65 mph on the highway.
Course, my O2 sensor wasn't hooked up and the car isn't tuned.
Last year I made 17 mpg usually cruising @ 75 mph. Base tuned Power FC with a working O2 sensor.
If you care about gas mileage don't buy an RX-7. Especially a modified one.
If that car doesn't have an aftermarket ECU get one before you waste the engine.

I got 19 mpg this weekend.. on my NA vert.. but in traffic I get shitty mileage..
once I got something like 24-26, cant remember exactly, but that
was all highway. I of course have no turbo, so therefore I suck anyhow.
