Turtle Honda Element MPG Quest!

Hey, guys!

I used to frequent this forum a lot with my '94 Civic DX that I copied and performed a bunch of Basjoos style mods on a few years ago! I was getting mid 50's to low 80 MPG in it before the motor popped twice, but I got rid of it and bought a 2002 Insight 5 speed and haven't been on the forum in a while.

I recently bought a 2008 Element and realized how atrocious the fuel efficiency is in it so I'm on a sort of quest to realize much better MPG gains again with it!




Bought an Ultragauge for it, removed the roof rails, the side steps, smaller antenna, 55 PSI in tires, and there's a sixth gear awaiting installation in the trans for a claimed 800 RPM drop on the highway Dreamy!

Currently getting around 32 MPG but my goal is 40! We shall see.. Good to be back!
