You already got J's headers man, calm down haha. I'm still running stock.
You're name isn't on the Honda national list yet either? I'm waiting man lol

[dlai5552]

Could someone please give me an idea of how many km's you can get out of a full tank with the 4.77 final drive!!??
I've heard you can get around 450kms?

[vyets]

i get about 400ish

[drsilliez]

Mines stock fd and I only get abt 400km. Is there something wrong then?

[VeYzZii]

Your FD doesn't directly effect your fuel economy, your driving style does. Suppose you drive around showing off you 4.77 FD, launching it at every light, redlining in every gear, you go through a tank quickly. But so will you with stock FD.

[lzybum]

stock fd (with i/h/e and stock ecu too) and i get about 420-440km per tank and fill up about 42-43L.
apparently our tank is a 50L tank? (i didn't even know that lol)

[dlai5552]

I'm same with lzybum, except I'm not running headers, and I just fill up until the pump doesn't let me anymore haha.
however, I would think that by driving on freeways, you'd lose more petrol by cruising at a high rpm WITH the 4.77 fd
