I used to get 25 - 30 mpg out of my S16. 35+ is possible on a good run. |

Mine did about 220 to a tank - but I did have a 60 mile round trip on unclassified country roads to work every day  |

i had 2 S16's, fuel economy was shocking no matter how i drove it, i did the usual and replaced the lambda and coolant temp sensor but no great improvment. approx 22-25 was the norm even on long motorway journeys @3000rpm |

does running on super unleaded make a difference? i ran one of my xsi's on this and after a couple of tanks it ran far better (not saying i got loads more power) and the fuel economy was far better |
