:twisted: I have High comp ratio as well. But it's a leak in the down pipe that's reducing the MPG. :evil:

For cruising it's actually all about the M2K4 I think you'll find :lol: But then, not many of you will have used one of those ...

I know exactly what you feel Merlin, although I may be on for a record this tank... Have 1/4 left and I've done 270miles, normally by now I'd be expecting the red light to come on.

first 6 months of lude ownership i averaged 14mpg combined :lol: :twisted:


now in the S i can get as many as 400 miles out of a tank but i have rinced through a tank in 250 before.

the S will make you want to go faster. just buy a normal lude if you want to cruise. leave the spec'd up ones to the serious drivers imo.
6th gen Prelude please Mr Honda. RWD 2.4 turbo lude.

All true. Except that I still get about 400 to a tank in mine, when I need to of course :D
