MPG'S and Evo?

I have been tossing the idea around again to get an EVO, what are the MPG’s like?

Yes, i would get it reflashed

I was also thinking about using water injection/ meth to improve MPG’s

Thought EVO guys?

PS i know i am not going to get 35+, but was thinking 30(?)

2

30 sounds pretty high, just dont get a 8 or 10 and we can still be friends.

3

Ive heard 19-24mpg depending on driving habits and what not. I think Motor Trend observed 19mpg on their long term Evo IX.

4

please speak y?

5

you aren’t going to see 30 MPG in an EVO, you might see Low 20s on the Highway

6

meth is not that cheap anyways

7

cause the 8 sucks and the 10 looks like garbage, other than that i love you.

8

wow, do you drive one?

that is why i was going to cut it with 50/50 water

dont worry it will be a 9, just dont know if it will be an MR or not. still looking.

9

19/25, edmunds test averaged 20.4

i would say the Pollock is dead on. you don’t need to own one to use google dan.

10

false info in here. if it was me i wouldnt use meth, i just dont like it… but thats my opinion.

even with the 35r while getting tuned saturday i was seeing 26-27 mpg on the highway cruising (this is with 880cc injectors). after the reflash u will see much better mpg in city/highway and the car will drive way better than it ever did, even if its stock

11

what is this thing you speak of… google? yes, i did google, but thought i would ask

would you use water? 26-27 doesnt seem that bad for a 35r… that is b/c of the more air… do you think you would see better on a stock turbo?

12

meth is cheap. I still have not gone through the 5 gallons i bought from innovative when i first installed my kit, which was right around the letchworth BBQ

13

50/50 of meth/distilled water would be your best route, thats what mike recommends as well, so thats what i would stick too.

on the stock turbo i actually had around the same mpg’s as well

14

can you tell me how you got 26mpg?

How did you calculate it? Did you go through a whole tank of gas on Saturday?

15

yes

16

yeah. i doubt you are getting that kind of mileage.

17

:tup:

Didn’t know they were that good, I just got done reading a 13 page thread on an evo forum and thats where I got my Low to mid 20s on the highway number from.

18

did it help the MPG’s

Does it help the MPG’s

19

who knows, my car is retarded and i stretched my timing belt on saturday as well lol. sooo i gotta replace it yay

20

im not 100% sure on this, since i really dont know all that much on meth. but meth is a fuel, so i assume it would help out
