600 rwhp and 24 mpg!!

[PARALYZER]

Everyone knows I have a Kb 2.2, but I did some traveling this weekend and did some studies.

190 mile trip. Drove 75-85 the whole way......20.8 mpg

return trip
190 miles. Never went over 70, plus drafted behind an 18 wheeler for 40 miles....24 mpg

I think thats pretty amazing.

Yep,that is great.These new era muscle cars rule. :thumbsup:

69cobrajet,
Your car is sexy as hell. I am envious.

 

[blackvenom77]

Sweet, what are your mods? :beer:

 

[Hye]

Very Nice, that's the beauty of these Cobras. The ability to produce 600+ rwhp as an everyday car and get 20+mpg. Holding it at a nice steady 70mph, 24mpg, hek i'd be extatic about that in a 670+ flywheel horse machine.

My last interstate trip I checked mine too....20.4mpg running 75-80 ; not close to your HP #s though (measly 478 here). But I have noticed on other trips 65-70 mph mileage does go up some.

Gotta love these cars. :rockon:

 

[RAZRS EDGE]

Yup...gotta love these cars. On the way back from dallas after getting tuned I got 25mpg @ 80mph

Sweet thanks for the list, I'm still doing some research. Here's another question, what octane rating? 93 or higher. I think Razr uses Torco.

10s 1/4
20s mpg
600 rwhp

Nice numbers epper: :banana:

 

[Mr. Freeze]

would a 06/07 get better gas mileage w/ a bigger motor under the hood?? or would a 03/04 cobra be a better gas saving car? i know , i know you dont get a cobra for gas mileage but damn some of us are getting awesome gas mileage,,,,, just curious

Aww man. The whole trip was 320 miles each way. From Minneapolis to Milwaukee. Both trips at night. I would cringe everytime I saw a moth come my way. I havent been able to wash my car because it has rained everyday since I have been back to Minneapolis. I do have a shield in front of my heat exchanger thankfully!
And I am runng DR's too They are virgins though. Never been burned.
