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

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

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 ---

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 ---
