The car has a mpg gauge but it seems to be all over the place, and Im trying to figure it out. I already have a scangauge but its in my other car, I might have to put it in this one especially if I plan on doing proper logging.

The best mpg I have gotten in the car was 33.9mpg with a custom tune I got from my tuner but I could never replicate it. I did manage to get 398 miles on that tank so I must have done something right. I average around 24.6mpg with mix driving, I have seen up to 29mpg highway but I live at the top of a hill and it pretty much destroys what ever mpg reading I was able to get. For example, I reset my mpg gauge and drove home, I actually hit 30mpg, but then I hit the hill, it went down to 27mpg by the time I hit the top. After starting the car in the morning and going back to work, I was down to 25mpg and going back up the hill, Im down to 22mpg lol. It sucks when work is 6 miles away, the car doesnt even get a chance to warm up.

So I need to do more.. no better logging with what my car is doing. With the taller 5th and 6th gear I see 70mph at 2600rpm but I need to figure out load vs rpm to see which has the better mpg.

OK enough rambling when I have more info, I will post
