HP unknown, stock LS1 with smooth bellows, EGR delete, longtubes and a 3" exhaust.

M6, whatever gears,

~ 13 mpg city, 24 highway

Thanks for the 1st reply.

13 is kinda low right? Heavy foot? Lol

**Spikito** · 04-13-2011, 12:34 AM

Little bit of that. And a lot of stop and go driving, I live 1.7 miles from work, a tank of gas lasts me 2 weeks. I never get over 35 mph or past 3rd gear.

The best I've ever gotten was 14 on a pure city tank, and that was driving nice, worst was 11.

I bought my car with a hypertech tune, I think that's part of it

24 back and forth to work. But, it is 24.5 one way to work, and 22 of that is interstate.

M6, Hookers/ORY/Aerochamber, lid, 3.42, HP unknown, but don't these cars come with 450? and since I have headers, that makes it over 500, right lol. Trap speeds for me are 107-109.

Spikito, that 1.7 mile drive to work is just about the most severe driving you can do with a car. No fluids will ever come up to temp, I bet your change oil light comes on every 2k miles!

weak dyno tune-331rwhp 336rwtq. m6 with 4.10s, bolts ons. daily driver 121xxx miles. usually average out between 20-22 just depends

**TLS_Addict** · 04-13-2011, 06:40 AM

HP unknown.....SLP intake, smooth bellow, headers, high flow cats, cat back, TUNED by frost PCM, 3.73 gears.

I averaged 20.01 the other day but I had some "hammering on it" getting used to the gears. I am thinking I can still get 22 mpgs if I stay out of the gas and drive just normal. I was getting 24-25 with the 2.73s. Its a much better feeling car though now.

What size cam are you running? That's a lot of ass for a H/C LS1. Most I've seen are at around 450rwhp and that is with a pretty aggressive cam (MS4).

**SiggyZ** · 04-13-2011, 07:56 AM

Not sure on the hp. A4 with 2:73 gears, lid, SLP Loudmouth, Bassani ORY, EGR delete, shift points update, BMR strut tower brace and subframe connectors.

16 mpg city / 24 mpg highway

**TLS_Addict** · 04-13-2011, 09:46 AM

**Smittro** · 04-13-2011, 09:50 AM

MPG's? who cares.lol

**35th-ANV-SS** · 04-13-2011, 09:54 AM

I've never kept track of the MPG...and don't ever plan on it either.

My driving style differs too much from day to day to even begin to get a good average of MPG. I could very easily go through a tank in a day or I can let a tank last me a month.

In the Impala LTZ, since the car keeps track of this for me, I do glance at it each fill-up. I usually am at about 24-26MPG. It has the 3.9L with active fuel management.
