The Blue Lagoon - '92 Honda Civic VX

Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts
my Civic VX mpg results are in!

Over the last 5 tanks I have averaged 47.2 MPG! My only real mods are a warm air intake and a passenger mirror block off. I guess I have saved a little weight by replacing spare tire with a plug and patch kit. Now if I can solve my disappearing oil issue I'll be set!
Let me wrap this up and say... "woooooo!"

Also, I received better plastic material from my former employer. Soon I'll do the wheel skirts and kammback. Also a partial grill block.

Thank you everyone for the support.

That's awesome! I'm looking to get to that point thinking of trying gasoline instead of gasohol to see if that gets me better numbers. Agree with getting rid of the heavy spare and using a plug kit that help save lots of weight for my car too.
