That's outstanding gas mileage, as compared to my carburated 20/22R's 16 MPG. Are FI engines really that superior?
Thanks.


Well, I've never owned a carb 22r to compare. Keep in mind that is under perfect conditions. Plus, I have my stock 4.10's and 31's. No re-gearing for me and the concrete jungle I put up with (the extra torque really helps with this setup too).

Around town I'm probably lucky if I pull 16. But, on the highway, Keeping it below 70 and not a ton of weight in the back...I can manage over 20 pretty easily. Hell, I've managed over 20 with a big block Mopar engine in the back as long as I don't push her above 70.

This beast does not like to idle below 850 though. 950 seems to be about right from what I can tell.
