Doesn't sound right but I drive about 90% city and 10% hwy. I am a very aggressive driver.
I have about 9.7k miles and at 10k I will have to rotate the tires because I forgot to rotate them. :pat:

So even with me driving as harsh as I do, do you guys think its possible to get 22 because im starting to think a sensor or something is off. Is there a possibility that there could be something wrong with my car or is it 100% me? :scratches:

Also, is there a tune for my car where I could lean towards mpg or/and switch between more power>mpg? Again, I do not have a si. :hmmm?:

I know they make a flash pro for the r-18 and most cars come from the manufacturer not running at optimal levels. With my si my MPG jumped up 4-5 gallons when I loaded there base map that came with the flash pro. I drive very agressivly as well. I can't speak for sure but I would think the same would be true. I would ask VitViper, he could answer better than anyone.

2012 Si sedan- at 5k miles I was averaging 31 but now at 13k I'm consistently 33-34 in the same driving habits.

I also have an Injen CAI but it doesnt seem to have affected mileage.

I average about 28 mpg with mostly city driving and some rural. That tends to include a lot of punching it from stop signs and stoplights, too. Worst I have ever had was 24 mpg. Keep in mind that this is iMid based, which could be off when comparing to calculating manually.

40 is insane tho i think hes pushing the car to work lol


I can hit 32/33 in town and some rural if I am taking it easy. I would imagine mostly highway driving at around 55ish would make hitting 40 feasible.

I can get 40 on road trips, just coasting at 75 and the mpg will be about 42.
in my daily city driving, I get about 28.
if it was a long day at work and I want to take it out on the road (safely of course) 18 mpg lol
