So you can figure roughly $75 for a honda will last you 300 miles.

people put race gas in for a reason, to race. i would say with it and constant racing (since you put race gas in at 7$ a gallon) most wont drive normal. I would say around half your normal mpg

and i was just saying thats what i get. driving mine everyday with prem. i still only get around 12-14mpg

Take it back. Tuned a 4G64 with 5 gallons of 109 that had to have lasted 150 - 180 miles. That was with pulls at 24lbs of boost but that owner had me tune it strictly for gas mileage

I wouldnt even expect to get that much tuned with a lot of passes. I tuned the car differently. And yes. A basemap is a basemap
