22.5 mpg
I ran a half a tank down and did 135miles...a tank is 12 gallons. Engine has cold air intake, msd coil, newer ngk plugs, wires, cap, rotor. EGR is blocked off which I am thinking is accounting for the rest of the gap i should be getting...i think i read that the ka gets like 28mpg factory. Factory exhaust manifold with custom exhaust with a glass pack as well...I was just curious though if this is about what i should be getting for mileage.
