I been driving my 914 this summer. Closing in on 5 Kim so far this year. When I go, I get the highest octane that I can find; 91 or 92 with no EtOH where I live, trending towards more ethanol as we get west. So, I have been old guy writing down the numbers and have consistently hit 31 -32 mpg. This decreases if I leave my gas cap off just before a drive with the RRC 2024 folks.
The interstates let you drive at around 80 mph, and that adds up to a light throttle 3,000 rpm with my gears. The car must be pretty good with airflow. |

If you're hitting those numbers via gallons/miles calculations and that is the AVERAGE you're kicking ass on the economy numbers.
I believe you are beating the 4-cylinder factory numbers by 20% with nearly three times the power... That's high enough mileage that I would want to see the AFR numbers. I'd be worried about being too lean. Still really good mileage numbers! |
