mileage !!!!!!!!!!!! help

[burkey0013]

i have a stainless exhaust from manifold back,roughly 2.25 inches and i got 200 mile from a full tank....is this right or wrong?

 

[Tom 1.0]

wrong....


were you driving like a ####?

 

[Shaun]

mind you i dont get a lot from a full tank on mine and i drive how should i say a little harsh :grinning:

 

[Ian]

2.25 on a micra seems a tad large.

A free-flowing exhaust should really improve your MPG.

As an aside note I get between 400 and 430 miles per tank.

 

[Arnold]

Wrong section

200 miles per tank is terrible, i get more from my Glanza

 

[mikey]

Oh dear...from Dundee to Glasgow and back in a 1.0...near as dammit a whole tank! :frown: I was trying to keep up with the 1.3's but still?!?

 

[burkey0013]

i was told that when i got the exhaust put it that it would be terribly over fueling...how can i change this...can a apexi afc be wired to the k11 ecu....

 

[pollyp]

my urban mpg also got worse after fitting a janspeed catback & manifold. motorway mpg is ok.
gonna get it remapped soon.

 

[Glen]

mikey there was another 1.0 there aswell lol

whats that about 70 miles give or take a few even flooring it should be alot better than that

 

[1.3GX]

my mpg didnt have any noticeable changes when i put my system on...

 

[mikey]

mikey there was another 1.0 there aswell lol

I was trying to keep up with that too!

Works out at roughly 120-ish miles...and i almost wore out third gear so the crappy mileage was mostly my fault, but it does drink more fuel than it used to...Before someone told me i really should press the loud pedal harder and more often....:wasntme:

mine does about 215 to a tank 230 if i drive really really sensibly. But I had a super s that would comfortably do 320-350 a tank.

Mine is modded but it was worse when it was a 1 litre?

 

[burkey0013]

so the 220 mark is normal-ish for a modded 1.3?

 

[Paul Smith]

it is for mine i would love more miles though

 

[talk2dave]

sounds like the lambda sensor, if there broke it can give appalling MPG

lol my super-s used to get 450miles to a full tank but now prices have gone up and ive put on a janspeed etc its down to around 250miles

 

[matt1987]

puttin a free flowing exhaust on and an induction filter will cause the car to use more fuel think about it "more air in will require more fuel with a fast exhaust output will cause the engine to flow better using more fuel due to more gases being expelled"

on my old xr2i on stock running i was getting 300miles to a tank a full exhaust from manifold and induction dropped it to 175/200miles and bhp went from around 90bhp to 110bhp

 

[Alexx117]

well my car aint exactly standard and i got 180miles to half a tank at around 105.9p.. i would have thought better airflow would make the engine burn the fuel more effiecently.

 

[Alienfish360]

lol my super-s used to get 450miles to a full tank but now prices have gone up and ive put on a janspeed etc its down to around 250miles

a full tank is a full tank regardless of it costing £40 or £30

for your mpg to almost half you have a problem or your driving style has changed significantly

 

[nissanmicrak12]

a 1.0 mpg is apauling over 60mph under that thats where the 1.0 is king lol a k and n down pipe gives me loads of extra miles

 

[micra oli]

mine is standard, and have just done a 350 mile motorway journey on just under a full tank. i reckon its got 30 miles left in it.....
