Lol, it wasn't stock otherwise, just the major engine crap, no emissions/etc, no cats, K&N intake, cruising at about 65-70 (~3500rpm, sometimes 4k), always got 28-31.

take the bus! What is the point of owning an FC and suddenly worrying about fuel economy? My 90 FC3C n/a , on the freeway, driving like grandma, I get 20-24 mpg. Driving like it should be driven, 12-15. I'll take the 12-15 and enjoy my ride!

PEACE THE DOG

Been away for some time now but I'm back again so here I go again. I mentioned this here before and got no response so I'll mention it again. What's up with the ultrasonic emulsifier technology not EVER being utilized in automobiles?

It's a long read but check this out:

An FC isn't much of a 'performer', and there's no reason why they can't get 25mpg, hell even if I beat the **** out of it I still get around 19-20
