Faceglide or DJTodd can probably best answer that.

I can hit about 20mpg if i really lay off of it with nothing but highway.

However, On my daily commute, I do about 80 miles round trip(San Jose to Oakland), with a healthy dose of traffic and me flooring it whenever I get the chance.

I always get gas at work, since it has great numbers(e81+ consistantly? hell yes!), I go 2 full days and fill up every third, almost 12gallons on the dot, sometimes 11, othertimes 13.

80+80+40=200 miles/12.5gallons will come out to 16mpg.

This is about 70% freeway, with about 10 miles of traffic a day. It really is not bad. I dare not try to go past half tank, for fear of starvation(shitty fuel tank) can be forced by the acceleration of the car itself at around 1/4 tank. This is obviously exaggerated by the increased fuel flow of e85 tasking the pump.

Full freeway, 20mpg is not that hard to hit honestly. But like anyone will tell you, your mileage will vary based on where you drive, how you drive and even when you drive. But it at least gives a bit of an idea.

I wouldn't drive past 15 gallons*20mpg all freeway, you are looking at 300 miles before you seriously need to consider fueling IMHO. Otherwise, I would say 200miles is a very safe limit and a good measuring stick to use when planning your trip. I would say a 5gal can adds an extra 60(who fills them up 100%?!?!?).

Hope this helps guys! Happy Labor day!

To the Gentlemen of F.I., beautiful product! I just spent the better part of a week going from page one and love what I see. You have spent a year in development and a year with functional product. Making improvements along the way and taking care of various other things, very busy I can tell.

This question had been asked a couple times early on and has not been addressed. Any progress with the CARB approval process? Are you even seeking it?

I saw terribleone got pulled into the ref station but didn't elaborate on what happened.

lj909,

Thank you for your support. Great question! From day #1 we designed the kit to comply with CARB standards. We are confident that with stock catalytic converters it will! There are a few key components that we are working on in order to make this happen. We hope to have them ready early next year. One major component is the (ETE) Exhaust Transition Elbow. Another key component is a little more top secret! Only reason is to not give away all of our ideas to "the competition" but when it is ready, we will move forward with our plans. That said, CARB is no guarantee. It is public knowledge that getting a TT kit approved by them will be no easy feat. Damn near impossible up to this point. A Supercharger kit would of been a much easier road to travel down. Nevertheless, we will still try.

Thank you
-Tony

Stay low key and you will most likely avoid attracting " flies" out there. I have been there so many time starting from my 96 TT Supra, Porsche 944S and Integra GSR back in the mid 90's. Make your car look more presentable , stay the factory look as much as possible and keep your ears and eyes open at most time when you drive and I think you will be in much less trouble with "John Law " and the state ref. Once you are being referred to the state ref., you are most likely screwed ! Happened to my dear friend with a modded STI

A Sunday update between football games...

We are currently finalizing the production setups for both our FAST-500 and FAST-500E (Ethanol) fuel systems. The FAST-500 performs flawlessly. The hang up from official release is (me.) I need to finish the installation instructions. As for the FAST-500E, it is currently installed on a SpecialtyZ build with our TT Kit. Big things in the works over there. Built engine on the horizon. The other ethanol fuel system currently installed on an in house install we are doing. The 7AT car in from Texas. Fuel system is complete and the car is awaiting other goodies to be completed and running. Our first round of transmission upgrades are implemented. We are finalizing the prototype of our upgraded flex plate (hopefully) this week and hope to have her back together and on the dyno in the next few weeks.

Stay tuned...

Thanks.
-Tony

lj909 · 08-31-2014, 04:40 PM

Wow a response on Sunday! All us Cali guys highly appreciate your efforts to get that "sticker" otherwise we're left with the Stillen kit and although I like superchargers, I don't think that setup would meet my expectations.

I'm putting away for a forced induction setup and hopefully you guys can achieve CARB approval because your kit is what I want. I like the B.P. kit too but that could never pass smog.

brucelidat · 08-31-2014, 09:39 PM

Oh man, I better start working extra long hours in case you guys get carb-approved

Arrvaxx · 09-07-2014, 07:54 PM

While my car was in California with Tony's hands all over it (*coughs*) I watched the F.I. world record run on youtube over and over and over. Well, this isn't the 11's but it is only my second time on the 1/4 mile and I am deeeeeeep in to the 12s. Next time it gets 100 octane. Tony tell Dan I am gunning for him!

That's right, you are in good hands with RT Tuning for the install and tune. James, Vince and the rest of the crew are solid people. Looking forward to keeping it going.
