[s-cars] Re: HCs and MPGs

Serge,

Time for my input.  Car is 95.5 S6 with MTM1+ and RS2 EM.  Last mileage with 
60% highway (70-80mph) and 40% stop and go yielded 20.65mph.  Usually I'm 
between 19 and 20 mpg.  As we would say in Chicago its only money - enjoy yourself 
- you could be taxed or towed!!

Mark near Chicago not dakining but drinking!!!

Oil at about 2200 miles, car was NOT warmed up properly.**  So perhaps with
fresh oil and a properly warmed up car I could have done better. I think the
high HC and low MPG are related, though the car runs great, and if everyone
out there is getting less than 20MPG with an MTM stage 1+, I can stop
chasing my tail.

I know this has been done before, but I don't believe it was specific to any
state of tune. 

So MTM stage1+ or equivalent, what's your highway cruising MPG??


** warmed up properly = glowing EM accompanied by the fine aroma of clutch.
