Lexus AFM/550's, HKS Intake, 3" downpipe, no cat, stock catback, slightly higher than stock boost, HKS MHG.

City - I don't know, I really should keep track of it sometime.
Highway - Between 25-28 MPG, depends on how I'm driving, and if I'm using cruise, etc.

yea driving like a moron i get about 15 per gallon average in town, i do hardly any highway driving. i will get about 220-230 miles on trip odometer on a full tank before my gas light wakes up.

im pretty sure 15-16 is not where its supposed to be but meh i have no black smoke.

K&N intake, 3'' cooleeze.

If I really run it dry, I get close to 300, but that's mostly highway. Day to day city driving nets me about 250 on the odo when I'm in need of more gas. I dont' see how Jeff get's 28 mpg on a SUPRA. Are you sure that's not in kilometers? I mean, c'mon, the tag at the stealership even says 22 or 23 MPG.

Remember kids, the stock gas tank holds 70 liters or 18.5 US gallons. The car will run out with about 5 liters still left in the tank. So even if you're getting crappy 20mpg (US), you should be able to rack up 350+ miles on a tank.

Ignore the useless orange light on the fuel gauge when judging how much gas you got left. When you fill up, take note how much it took, to really see where you stand.

Metric measurement for fuel economy is L/100km. I do know how to do conversions, lol, and I have checked my fuel economy multiple times on the highway over the last 3 years, it's usually in the same range.

The car got me a Lexus hat at this year's Supra fun run here in Calgary for fuel milage. Reg Reimer still gets phenomenal milage in his MKIV though, it was over 30mpg.

I always give my fuel economy in either L/100km or in US MPG, I don't know of anyone who uses Imperial MPG, that would just confuse everyone, lol. (It is over 30 if I use Imperial MPG though... heh).
