    Is there anyone out there building Hondas for max mpg? im saving for my project. pretty basic, EK w/ vtec-e engine.

    I bought a fuel economy car so that I could devote more boost and more fuel to my cb7.
    Does that count?

          go to that one forum where they take cars and ruin them to get 60+ MPG

          but they can barely go up a slight slope.

            Boo for mpg. I think alot of people on this forum stretch the truth on what kindof milage they really get. Like saying they get 45mpg with their stock civic hatch. I got 31 back with my stock engine std model. I think some people just can't do simple math to findout what kindof milage they really get.

                  the mpg is impressive but cmon... Also, I doubt how much his city mpg has changed.

                    yeah but it was a CX orginally. no engine mods, just body. i wanna go the other way, all engine but body mods.

                      Well then its city milage is probly still not that great. Aerodynamics don't matter much at 30mph. Plus you look retarded.

                          One peice fiberglass front cover with a tube frame underneith like the dragsters would probly be a better bet. This guy seems kinda like your average hacker. The closer you look the shittier it looks,lol. It looks like mpg rice.

                            i know that the early 90's escorts the 2nd gen get around 45 average on hiway.

                            neons also get 43mpg hiway too. so i belive a crx or a civic cx can get at least 45 easily if the engine is tuned right and you know how to drifve to save gas.



                            best methold to save gas i belive is do a "browns gas" setup that should definally inporve
