    Personal Best - MPG

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Filled up in Manchester, VT and cruised around a bit up there before heading back to the Atlantic City, NJ area. It's a personal best on a single tank of gas, no BS. Backroads in VT were fun at about 60 and the highway at about 70 tops. I'm pretty happy considering it's been about 1500 miles on the REVO programming (lowered boost due to no exhaust).

    12/23/09 - My car has been phenomenal to me. Runs strong. Don't think I'm ever going to sell it. Rather throw $7k into it for a refresh than buy a new A4 that has no dipstick.

    Gas light was still not on but I had to be close. I was getting gas when I took this. This was all interstate driving with 4 people and luggage. The OP looked like he drove some with the gas light on judging on his gas gauge.

    Actually I did sometimes. I was surprised at how well my car did but not blown away since the same and better has been achieved by others.

    Re: Personal Best - MPG

    Yea, same - I drafted cars and got on it here and there to pass those going too slow. I did drive with the gas light on for a while (estimated mileage left was 20 miles). I might have broken 500 miles but I doubt I"ll ever get 515! That's awesome! MY drive was about 1/2 dozen shut offs and about 90% highway 10% city. I get between 350 and 400 doing 50/50.

    Very nice! I didn't know you flashed your ECu. Did you tell me? I forget.

    I'll give you a call when I pick up my car. Perhaps you'll still be in NJ in a few weeks.

    Re: Personal Best - MPG

    When I first got the car and had to transport it from Ohio to Niagara Falls, NY (should've been Ontario but I missed the vehicle export office closing time by < 10 minutes and had to stay the whole weekend in a motel ) I still had about half a tank left. I estimate I could've done 550+ miles. Mind you, I was stage 0 and just got the car, so I wasn't pushing it too hard, just cruising at 70-80mph trying to make it to the border in time.
