I get about 420Km's to a tank, thats about 260 miles. Is this good or bad? In my cavy, I got atleast 100 more km's and it was a smaller tank and a bigger engine.

I got 280 miles to my last tank, and when i filled up it took about 14 gallons... so that put me around 20 mpg which isnt bad since my last truck got about 14.5 mpg.. but i did expect to get a little better than what im getting

this is about correct. from what I read, the outtie is heavier than the cav... that + its AWD. and a severely underpowered engine 160hp stock (there was a hooked up element I saw with drop inmods -intake, exhaust, ECU reset- and it only managed to get dynoed at 170hp LOL)

maybe cuz its so heavy...

like civics are super light and small, only 2wd and have less HP stock than we do, yet it gets like 400 or so miles to the tank

the pnly advantage i see in a civic

Would adding a k&n drop in filter do anything?

lets it breathe a little better, and I think its washable so you dont have to buy another filter. might boost your MPL slightly
