how many mpg u get on your 2.3

turboranger83 · Apr 11, 2005

with my 2.3 turbo i get 16 if i take it easy. 14 if i beat on it a lot. this is in a truck so the drag is quit a bit more i would imagine.

I used to get 20 MPG (10 gallons to 200 miles) but this last tank has me at 150 miles when I'm still half full. I'm wondering if maybe the car is adjusting some to the exhaust work done this time last month. Hopefully I will get even better MPG when I get a cold air intake on. Of course I could be entirely wrong and its a freak tank of gas?!

I dont know my speedo is out of order

bhuff30 · Apr 11, 2005

22mpg with 70-80% highway. 17mpg if I beat on it hard with a lot of in town driving.

The bes I have eked out is 26.6mpg. Even when I say I will try to be nice and accellerate slowly and smoothly I still end up dropping the hammer pretty often.

Call it a lack of self-control if you want, I call it "why the hell did I turbocharge this car if I wasn't going to use it?"

I got that 26.6mpg while letting it warm up in the middle of winter for as long as 30 minutes. I like getting into a warm car, and if you turn the heater on low you don't always have to scrape your windows.

17-20 mpg in town, if mostly hiway, 30 mpg. Thats a good thang at $2.10 a gallon

Teal you might want to take a look at your O2, those numbers sound really low. Did you get a new O2 when you changed the header, if ya didnt you might want to.

I get about 24-27 all hwy, but around town about 20 or so

I didn't get a new sensor, but my 20 is all around town.

B1ackdragon · Apr 12, 2005

I get 30-33 hwy and 19-21 city.

feifong · Apr 15, 2005

thats pretty sad for you 20's because 5.0's get 20 mpg

93GreenLX · Apr 16, 2005

29-31 Highway and 20-22 City for the last 10 tanks. Except this one...its was 17 combined...gulp

MagnaflowGT · Apr 16, 2005

i freakin wish, I get like maybe 7-10 miles to the gallon, i dunno y. i drive hard, but thats still no excuse.

ssjmaverick23 · Apr 16, 2005

i get about 20-23 in town and the best ive gottin was 25 this is driveing it hard

ahnospell44 · Apr 16, 2005

Mines 20-21 In town combined with highway every other day. I think somethings wrong, after the hurricanes that happened down here, it completely killed my mpg, infact the day after the hurricane when i ran my car, it ate like 2 gallons going 10 miles. then has slowly been getting back.

2.3Lxhatch311 · Apr 17, 2005

Magnaflow we're in the same boat. I got like 14 miles to a gallon before I replaced my fuel injectors and ECT. Now It's even worse! I had over a half a tank and got like 68 miles out of it. Just pitiful.

92CRNVIC · Apr 17, 2005

Last year on vacation averaged about 26 miles to the gallon on 3 tanks of gas. One of the tanks I averaged over a hundered miles an hour. Kinda kills the gas milage only git about 22 on that tank.

TylerDurden · Apr 17, 2005

I got over 300 miles on my last tank. I just recently changed the o2 sensor and that made a huge difference.

mr_woodster · Apr 18, 2005

19-24.5 lots of city on the low end....mild highway driving on the top end. Im sure my milage will go up if i stay closer to 65.

grey5.0beast · Apr 18, 2005

Umm....... 5.0s dont get 20 mpg, you'll be lucky to get 17 (probably less) on the highway and about14 in the city depending on the gearing and the driver.
