what kind of mpg can i expect to get with a single turbo 20b with 850 primaries and 1600 secondaries. what seems to be common if there is such a thing

STUCK. I got SNOWNED!!!!!

on a completely stock one behind the auto trans I saw almost 18 mpg if I drove an entire tank at 67mph on the interstate. If I went 75mph (the limit out west) it would be more like 15.8-16.5 mpg. I am too poor to try any faster.
It only goes down from there.
I'd say I'm getting 10-12MPG in mixed driving.

The secrect to getting better cruise mpg with a 20b and any larger displacement engine is to lower the cruising rpm's. This isn't gonna happen if your using the stock Rx7 manuel transmissions. At 75mph the rpm's will be at 3k. That's fine for a little 13b but not good for a larger displacement 20b engine. A 20b has enough torque to chug along at 2k rpm's all day long at 75mph. You just gotta find the correct gearing to get better results.

interestingly with the stock ECU, and the short gearing of the truck we took in 2005 mpg was like 8-9, the rpms are up out of closed loop...

Even in 5th I can break the tires loose if I want. (sticky 275s)
When I am driving in traffic I usually shift from 1st to 5th

i saw a jc cosmo spec's page and it said that it gets 6.0km/l (city) and 9.7km/l (highway). and if you convert that it should be 14.1 m/g (city) and 22.8 m/g(high way)

why cant people get that in a FC Tii, if you keeped everything stock and used the Tii manual trans?
