LOL!!!



A more serious reply would be a) it depends on what engine you have installed and b) how you drive it.

In this respect, I've had between 2.9mpg and 25mpg (different cars/engines/driving)

You also need to establish if its a proper gallon or one of Uncle Sams.

What sort of figures did you get from the gtrs chris?

I averaged 13-15mpg in my 500bhp 383.... as a guide to my driving style I average 29mpg in my 320bhp M3 and 28mpg from my Noble.

Slap a LS engine in and you may average over 20mpg as they are massivelly more fuel efficient.

With my stock LS7 and stock gears in my G50/52, I get about 18mpg on the highway and about 5mpg on the track. These are US gallons.

I was bored during an endless drive through a 50mph average speed camera section of the motorway so I was looking through the ECU airflow readings. Based entirely on that reading being accurate and knowing (from the stack guage)that my Lambda is 1.00 at a cruise. I calculated that I was getting about 35-40MPG from the LS7 under those conditions

During normal longer distance cruising I've been getting about 25MPG..though often less for some strange reason
