I've never seen 500km on the odometer =[
Low fuel light comes on at about 350, but I know I have plenty of fuel left.
Most I have ever put in at the pump is 42L.
I'll drive on average 35-50 KM monday to friday, so shortish trips, and varies on the weekend.

I know the reason im getting much more mileage that you guys.
its gonna sound silly pointless and slightly defectable but you would get 150+ a tank.
go to an exhaust shop and tell them to make you an axelback straight through with a hotdog resinator instead of a muffler.
because the standard muffler is soo restrictive you lose power.
but doing this you will have minimal torque gain but more high end...and i give my car quite a bit everyday....4krpm here 5k there. somtimes 7.2k but im getting more than you guys when being concervative and im not trying.
when i do shift at 2-3.5k i would get around town about 550kms. highway close to 750kms....
^lool watched the whole 5 minutes and saw your car about 2 times... i couldn't isolate which sound was yours but i'm guessing it was the one that sounded like a bee.
Also... how do people get good mileage on freeway? Maintaining a speed of 100 keeps the revs at 2700... it drained my fuel bad

btw sorry about spelling mistakes.
When you shift? It's auto?
I get roughly 480-540 km's / 50L tank (usually run it down to about 7 litres), spirited driving
Most I've ever had was 623km's, some freeway, some heavy footed driving around town. hoping to crack 650 next time i try but its soooo hard
My EG5 build "Try to move in with a hot easy gurl. I've got a mate who does his house mate when he gets drunk. This way you can cure some of the loneliness and also save $$$ on prosties. Just remember to act like nothings happened the next day because if you get attached your laterz mate."

????Please explain this in a little more in-deatil????
Hotdog or 'mid-muffler' as some people call it. I thought it was the same thing almost, except that the rear muffler is supposed to be somewhat more aesthetic and made for tone/sound quality.

How much it cost ya for a straight through with hotdog? And is it loud?
ive got a Hotdog exhaust, its not LOUD LOUD, but it does the job with its loudness. i dont know how many DB's it would be though. still legal since never pull over i guess.
Integra GSI 97' get up to ~510km's to a full tank of fuel (50L), mainly suburban. anyone else roughly get the same?
really taking it easy, hardly any hard take offs.
fuel usually safeway (woolworths) 91 octane petrol.
only mod/s is a pod filter and a 'Hotdog' exhaust (from what i hear its called).
