Very nice. 2750 rpm at 70 mph is about what you'd expect from the 97 LX trans with the 0.702 fifth and 4.058 final drive. But lean burn? Seems pretty impressive to be in lean burn at 70mph. I think basjoos does that in his heavily aeromodded Civic. But that's about it.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
