the more efficient your engine is, the less fuel it uses, i know its not a supra but my scion has i/h/e and i get on average about 6mpg more than stock. i can get 38 highway and 26-28 city. so free things up abit and you should be able to get better milage

convert 23 mpg to kilometers per liter - Google Search

23 miles per gallon = 9.77830527 kilometers per liter



one US gallon = 3.78541178 liters




Sorry for the bold, it just comes out that way, and apparently copy/pastes that way too.

Thanks well theres def no way im getting 9km to the liter it feels way more like 5km to the liter, probly because mines a turbo 5speed. What rpm would be the best to shift at when i'm trying to save gas? 2000-2500?

Yup, around there would be best. I'm getting slightly above 20 right now, but I REALLY putz around. I don't floor it from stop sign to stop sign, my boost controller *never* goes positive (stays in vacuum), especially when its cold, and I usually stay around 70 on the highway nowadays. Before I'd cruise at 90 in the passing lane, but now I realize I don't give a ****...I'd rather save gas than time.

You have to get used to driving like that, really, you can't just do it. Once you do though its easy to go from 'super gas saving civic driver' to 'highway romper'.
