What size wrench are you mostly using on your RX7?

I don't have any link right now to translate into MPG, but it's a pretty good MPG number I'm sure. I know other Canadian guys with N/As who don't get as good gas mileage as me, but if anyone has better numbers to show it's probably Amur_.
How so you guys get such crap *** mileage with N/As!
I get like 17-18 MPG CITY, and that's a 145K mile Turbo II motor!
I guess that's just a testament as to who is changing their oil and spark plugs on time.

I just got back from sevenstock, and i made a post in the west section about the fuel economy. I averaged 24 mpg, with a best of 26 on the freeway. This is with a haltech e6k, 550/1600cc, street port, cosmo pump, and 2 windows rolled down
not bad i say!

Just got back from 7 Stock, 2493 miles round trip. I averaged 28.58 mpg at 5 to 10 over the speed limit with cruze control. Only mods where a street port, Cold air box with cone filter and removed the precat.
I do about 80% city driving...getting 18 MPG...On the Highway around 23 MPG...
Some gas saving tips are:
Of course keep in tune...Oil changed on time, make sure tires are inflated properly...Drive smooth...anyone else?

It's getting colder with fall up here in Canada. As soon as that happens my gas mileage falls off about another 1/4 quicker than normal. Anybody else have this happen?

With A/C : 10mpg city, 20mpg highway
With Out A/C: 12mpg city, 22-24 highyway.
Somehow I managed 26 on a 300 trip last week. Used 89 octane and kept off boost and used cruise @ 80mph the whole way. I normally see 20 when I use my usual 93 octane.

I got 24mpg on I-5 going to SevenStock. I usually get 17-18mpg in town, but after I put on my header I just couldn't stay out of it and got 15. Should be able to get 27 freeway out of it now. I think Blue TII was getting 26 out of the motor I'm using now. He was running catless with a cone filter, but I don't think he had it running as tight as I do.

the best i have seen was 620km's highway per 60L and 580km's city per 60L. I hope once the microtech get proffessionallly tunned it will reach better numbers!
Oh and by the way Metric is what the Entire World is using minus our southerly neighbours... just a thaught!
