RPM Vs The Best FC

--- Quote from: clarence on February 12, 2009, 12:01:39 AM ---So far my best consumption is 13km/l based on 70/30 highway/city driving. My highway driving does not ecxceed 90km/h.
I think the Champion here is a particular forumer "fri13th" who claimed to achieve 18km/l based on a mixture of city and highway driving on local road. I don't know how he managed to achieve that.

Hmm.....so i shouldn't complain when I am getting 12.5km/l based on the same highway/city driving as you...previously there was another topic abt FC and out of curiosity, for a few weeks, I try not to accelerate beyond 2500rpm and max speed of 90km/h....I actually managed to push the FC to 14km/l......but after tat few weeks....I gave it up...too impatient to continue it....haha.... :yehyeh:

If I pumped Caltex Gold, I can managed to achieved slightly above 12km/l based on 80 to 90% city driving, but if I used Caltex Silver, then will be less than 12km/l.
Novellus Legends:
I drive to batu pahat once a month (2pax) , using NSH exit Ayer Hitam(town route) - Distance - 142km - NSH at speed of 140km/h RPM always 3k+ , Town route at speed of 100km/h RPM 2k. Using 95 esso , current mileage 32k, 205/50/R16 set up.
FC over 3 trips average 15km/l. (Count in the Custom Jams every trip at least 30mins)
Usual SG roads 70%hw i get 15.5 with speed 100 and RPM 2.2
Best FC i ever get locally was only 17.4km/l here with 380km at half tank mark same driving style. No Mods.
Driven a FD to Batu Pahat before. FC was able to get 14.5km/l too...not too shsabby consider Civic was a class above Latio...

my fc never went past 13km/l no matter how light footed my dad was. ended up selling it for the sylphy and enjoying better fc. dunno why either?! :yehyeh: :yehyeh:

sylphy 1.5 weight is heavier than Latio. SO fc could be higher
cheers

3 krpm : 120~130kmh
4 krpm : 140~150kmh
too high rpm is bad for FC. Last trip 90% hw 10% city, above 3krpm on highway gets 12.6kml.
low rpm also bad for FC. For daily short start stop, almost 100% below 2krpm, I get 86km at 1/4 mark.

Hi Ying, yr last trip at 90% hw shd be referring to trip to m'sia right? If yes, the FC at 12.6km/l shd considered very low liao. Btw, my last trip to m'sia last wkends is at 16+km/l with the rpm 2 to 2.5krpm and really found that if i can "maintain" the pedal position (=> not change in fuel injection), eg. the rpm still at around 1.8 to 2.2krpm, depending on going up the slope or down, strongly believed can hit 18km/l without any issue.
**Of cos, with this method, the fun of driving will be gone :crycry: Best FC or Fun driving, => it's yr decision :bleh:
