View Full Version : Is 30+MPG possible - tuned 1.8 A4's ? rook13la 11-17-2007, 03:32 PM I've been seeing some '98 - '02 1.8 A4's for sale, mods: chipped, intake, exhaust, etc saying they are getting 30+ MPG. Is this right? I've now seen three posts for tuned cars saying this. Meanwhile I'm getting 25 100% stock. WTF? 2.0GT35 11-18-2007, 06:00 PM JAFO 11-19-2007, 03:30 AM rook13la 11-19-2007, 03:44 PM 2.0GT35 11-19-2007, 10:51 PM Performance is at WOT, the tuners just lean out the car a little while in vacuum seeing that the stock chip runs slightly rich at that point. So this means while in vacuum holding a set mph on the fwy we end up gaining some MGP. Even when I was making 500whp the car would still get 30 mpg on the fwy since I am not using any more power then a stock 1.8t would be. rook13la 11-20-2007, 01:23 PM Are novices still welcome? 2.0GT35 11-24-2007, 01:29 PM |
