Started tracking my mileage

[MatchboxKiller]

I totally have the JDM front end, with the upgraded VTEC modulator. I'd say I'm pushing about 600 to the wheels now.

more like 500hp buddy

I found a consistent 2 extra mpg by switching to non ethanol gas...the only 1 brand in the area that carries it. I get 32 to 33 mpg (full to empty - 10 - 11 gal) everytime I check.

It was 500 hp, then I blacked out my tail lights and found some fake side vents.

Is that the same motor as the echo? I've seen 70's out of an echo before!

Not bad. I started out doing the same thing myself.

However, Darin actually runs another site called EcoModder.com that is all about improving fuel economy. They have a very nice gas log feature there that gives you nice a graphed history of your tanks as well as an automatically updating image you can link to your signature. In any case, thought I'd mention it as an option.

Here are examples from my Paseo's log over there:

Nope, its the engine they used before the Echo. Cast iron block, no vvt, waste spark ignition, just a plane jane engine. Its very similar to the etec technology wise, but without the dual runner intake manifold.

stil can't wait to see what you can get otu of the Aveo so I have something to shoot for! :P

[Daox]

Well, I think I've only put on around 170 miles on the Aveo so far. The gas gauge reads around 3/4 full still, so it might be a little while. I'm still trying to fix the dumb misfiring problem too.

You must be a very careful driver then. I got a mixed MPG of 24.19 and I'm happy with that. Can you tell me about your driving technique to get numbers likCDRe that? I mean I've gotten 33+ in an Aveo before with mostly highway driving going 65-75+ and I thought that was awesome. I could get close to 40 if I always went the speed limit and accelerated carefully, but I still don't see myself getting into 50s or 60s. Maybe it was just never my priority, but I toilet still like to know what you do differently.
