If your car gets 500mpg great, but its dumb to argue that the bigger and more powerful the motor you have means you get better gas mileage. :l |

my car doesnt have the stock rear end gears. they're pretty short gears they are 3.55s or maybe shorter i dont know exactly i cruise 65mph in od at about 2800rpms |

Don't post internet hearsay, thats stupid. And what exactly are you going to prove me wrong about? The original argurment was your car gets better gas mileage than a 4-cylinder becuase you have a bigger motor. Should I go on H-T and ask for people to post their best gas mileage with a turbo car? Becuase thats how you'll prove me wrong if you can prove that the bigger the motor the better the gas mileage your going to get. |
