Just curious what kind of gas mileage you get in your 7. I see that some of you are running around with 1200 cc injectors, and that can't be too good on your mpg. Oh yeah, also, how much does gas cost where you all are from. I'm loving these cheep gas prices. :thumbsup:



I get 15 - 20 mpg, depending on where I'm driving, and how far I put my foot in it.

Gas here (Seattle) is dirt cheap. The other day I paid $1.17 a gal for 87 oct. from a Chevron. Its funny Texico hasn't caught on that gas prices are going down. They have 87 oct. for $1.57 - $1.67 still. :wow:

I get about 18MPH no matter how good or how crappy I drive. First gen with a 13B FI. I got about the same off my 83 and it seems like i got a little less off of my 89 vert, but I had done a lot of mods.



Luckily living neara costco they drive the local gas prices down to clost to $1.00 Costco sell 87 for 1.01, so other stations are pretty close to that!

N/a form 300-350 miles to the tank.



Now Turbo form 200 miles to the tank.



It is about 1.23 a gallon for 93 octane.

The buzzer in my brother's 87 TII works. I found out yesterday when I used his car. THe buzzer in my convertible hasn't worked since I installed the Wolf 3D. :smilewinkgrin:

i get the MOST 180-200 per tank. how many gallons is a 2nd gen tank??



gas down here is about $1.06 for 87octane. dont bother with the higher stuff, car runs alot better with the cheap sh1t.

Driving normal, being no more than 5psi and going no higher than about 3000rpm without full throttle, I will get about 15mpg in the city. Cruising on the highway going about 75mph I will get about 22mpg. As long as I don't get in the boost where my secondaries dump the fuel I get good gas mileage, plus I spent a lot of time tuning with the haltech for good everyday driving conditions. I think I paid $1.15 for 93octane the other day.
