Gas Mileage?

What kind of mileage do the Eagle Talons TSI get on the highway?

If you are talking like on the interstate and hardly boosting, around 25-30 at the highest. In town can be as low as 17-18.

yep, they're not bad for being turbo'd.

How old are you? Just asking, because a turbo eclipse is expensive to maintain. You have to buy atleast 91 octane, they arn't that great on gas mileage if you boost often, expensive insurance, etc.

You might be better off with a N/T if you are tight on money.

I was actually lookin at the Eagle Talon. Or are those still very expensive? I drive a 94' Bonneville SE and run it on 89 octane right now.

Talon is the same car, just a different shell.

Does anyone know what kind of gas mileage a 4g64 gets.....cause mine seems to really suck.

nova1313 · 12-29-2005, 08:55 AM

my non modded 4g64 got around 20mpg city driving and I was around 26-27 on highway (I mean all highway whole tank)

Note when I originally bought the car the gas milage was complete crap. I replaced air filter, and got a new o2 sensors, cleaned out the throttle body. It definately improved after those items by alot.

Since I started adding stuff the mpgage went down a bit. I'm dreading when I finally bolt on the evo 3 16g I got in the garage come spring break. Ouch
