Autech SR20DE MPG - Results

Recommended Posts

So I've put roughly 1k miles on my Autech SR20DE swap and figured I'd share my MPG results so far. With me still learning stick (need to replace the shifter bushing) and occasionally putting my foot in it I've been averaging:

 

27-MPG Combined

30-MPG All freeway

24-25-MPG in the city

 

I don't know what the car weighs yet, but I'm quite pleased with the results!!

 

Just need to ditch the spoiler now :-)

BluDestiny - I haven't really confirmed.  It was installed by Vildini Motorsports.  It just stopped cranking today, verified the battery was good, might be the starter after only a couple of weeks of driving it really kind of irks me to have a failure so fast.

 

78ztlye 17x9 with a 5" offset. (could be wrong, I got mine a LONG long time ago)

Yeah, I don't understand the wing on an NA car that you are talking about mileage for, I would have sold that to a Honda kid right off ;). If you lose that and do some of the normal drag clean up that the high speed guys do, you can get a lot better fuel economy.Do you have a pic of the front of the car so I can see what openings there are still up front? Just curious about how much more you can de-drag the front.

What does the method of induction matter concerning wings?

Nothing specifically other than typically if people running extra down force are talking about fuel efficiency racing which rarely involves an NA SR. The wing it's self doesn't directly correlate with the NA reference other than the oddity of the pairing. The gist was that I wouldn't have even tested the mileage before having removed and sold the wing.
