Hey,
Do a search in the forum for this topic.. its been well covered before with many responses..... FYI I get between 4-500km depending on city/rural driving, usually around 450.

I think there has been topic at sumstage but cant remember when or where to direct you.
I have similar to other members. I drive RS200 on 96Octane Full tank = 55L Round town = 430 - 460km => 8.4km/L Distance = Approx 640km This is same milage as my mate that drives an EVO 4 running 20psi - you can image the power difference. I have a Toyota Corolla S/W 1500cc on 91Octane Full Tank = 40L Round town = 500 - 550km => 13.7km/L Hope this helps. -------------------- RESIST

Average km/l - 10.6 (stdev 0.67)
Average mpg - 29.9 (stdev 1.88) Data is a mix of town and country driving (tho my town driving around here is pretty free flowing), and also a mix of 96 and 98 octane. 98 octane seems to be a little more economic (in litre terms, definitely not $$$ terms), but I need a few more data points to see if there's a statistically significant difference. Here's the data from 50 odd fills: Attached Image  -------------------- |
