i have a 97 2.0 rs and i wonder wats the range of mpg's id be getting. i have an intake, headers and 2.5 exaust and asuming all tire pressure and tune up is recent, how many miles would i get hwy and city? and how can i get bettr mileage? sadly its a bit ricy and i have some 18s chrome and wanna switch but will do later.

 

im not sure aboput the mpg but i have a few friends with either a gs or rs as daily drivers and on a full tank they get about 350 miles

 

So why not find the tank capacity and do the math? lol

 

yea i get that too butthe best i got was 400

 

tank is 16 gal but there are many things that effect the mpg and i wondered wats the factory mpgs and how i can estimate but one ride could be 300 and the other 400 i drive anywhere from 75 to 90 miles hwy. and in the city i do the limit. but going a steady 75 i hit 425 going to gainsville

 

So your best mpg is about 25ish. That makes sense.

 

does the ac efect mpg

 

Hell yes it does.

 

i know that if i make the car lighter i will get better mileage and the rims i have way a ton. what kind of rims or material of rims should i get but i wanna stay int eh 18

 

Its really not going to make that big of a difference.

The A/C and your driving style make the biggest.
