real world, bgreene, your looking at 4-4.25 mpg. giving you a range of 200-240. still double that of a 2S.

at 32mph i'm burning 7.5-8.5 gph. depending on load & conditions. with the curtains up on;y 28 mph.

good info, maybe I will keep the 2.4 200 on my V, still got the 250 EFI sitting on the stand

That's at 4200-4400rpm.

That's good for 60 miles out......far enough to get on tuna, 60 back, 60 reserve.
