Info center MPGs

[JoshK]

Was wondering if the dash info center MPGs would still be acturate after modding. Before I did anything to the car it would show in the mid 20s and now it is consistently around 15-18. I just filled it up today and reset the trip so I will check it the old fashion way too,but was just wondering.

BTW, paid 3.09 for E85 today. Filled the car up for $45!

Probably not. Pulses per gallon is a parameter in Sct Advantage that can be changed to get the mpg correct. Maybe your tuner changed it for you?

+1 it may be close but will most likely be off, when you change pumps and injectors you have to adjust pulses per gallon like Bruce said.

That is what i figured. I am going to check the mileage the old fashion way on this tank of gas and see how close it is.

You're gonna get worse mileage with E85 as opposed to E15 (or whatever your station sells).

i know the mileage won't be as good, but I think that the mileage i am seeing isn't bad at all. I didn't check it real acturately on the last tank, but it seemed to be around 16-18 with about a dozen wot runs mixed in there. That mileage isn't bad at all especially when the e85 was $3.09!
