Default How many miles in your Blobeye STI

Just wondering how many miles to a tank you guys/gals get in your Blobeye STI's?

Looking at getting a JDM Blobeye STI and have seen someone on here say he only gets 210 miles to a tank on a UK model, must get more than that surely? I use to get more than that in my modded STI Type R?

That is probably about right. I get 230-250 to a tank in my 03WRX PPP.

STi PPP with TSL333 about 220 on average.

Best I had was just over 300 on a run to cornwall with some running around once we got dow there.

Ultimately it depends how you drive the car, if you have a heavy right foot you will be lucky to get anywhere near to 230 miles from a tank!

I get about 220 miles to a tank on my '05 JDM STI, but I do tend to fill up when there's still about 10 litres left in the tank. I'd probably make about 270 before the engine actually stops.

i really dont understand how some cars/people can be so lame on fuel....

i get over 300 miles to my tank near every time and thats always with a mix of spirited driving and commuting.

best ever was 406 when i had to run off boost!!! that was painful!

this is in a tek3'd 03 WRX....

I still expect to get over 300 with my 2.5 conversion running over 350bhp..
