top documentation... due to me not knowing how much i paid per litre of my 55.45$ of fuel i got between 9.7L and 10.1L /100km's.
457km's to that tank and i had a bit more in it last fuel stations for 125km's. Had about 200km's of highway though.

wow, u guys are getting some top fuel economy. The best I've been able to do is 12L/100km, and lately have struggled to get it below 15:rant: , although I do drive like a tool.

tool != economy

12 L/100 Km is not bad. Don't forget the EFI pumps a lot of fuel in when the engine is cold. My daily trip is 13 Km twice a day, home to work and back. Manual, revs up to 2,500 through the gears, keeping up with traffic, and I get 12L/100Km. Long trips should do a lot better.
If you really want good fuel economy, get a 2L Lancer - 15 Km/L on country tips, at 110 KPH.

Im just talkin city/suburban start stop driving, country driving I've done 335ks from 31L, which is roughly 9.3L/100km, which isnt too bad.

I worked my usage to be about 10L/100km. Which surprised the hell out of me considering the ECU is an auto ecu (mapped more rich). It'd be awesome with an aftermarket ecu!

I'm gonna fill her up with some v-power or vortex and drive sensibly (try to anyways) for 100-200kms and see what I can get. I spose it makes it worse that I work for a pizza shop doing deliveries so I'm constant stop starting and theres almost no roads that could be classed as highway driving.
