This info is useless without mileage. What kind of distances are you travelling? Highway driving? City driving? Stop and go driving?
I personally find my 20V (automatic) burns a lot even when I keep within 80km/h and under 3000rpm throughout. Conditions are mostly stop and go as there are several traffic lights along my route.
1. My commute is a total of 40km per day.
2. No traffic at the times that I move around.
3. Air condition used 25% of the time.
My car is also an AE91 Corolla with a 2" exhaust. I use a cone filter and iridium (heat range 6) plugs, and roll on light 15" rims. I used heat range 7 before, and compared to the 6's, the 7's perform better. Engine ran slightly cooler, acceleration was smoother, less smoke at higher revs, and better on gas.
With the 7's and my style of driving, the motor burned $75-$80 in gas per week and up to $90 when I stomp on the gas a bit and carry it up to 8200rpm for a little "exercise".
With the 6's now, the motor burns $90 per week doing the same runs, and up to $100 per week when I stomp on the gas. At this current rate, my motor is delivering about 20mpg. The 7's gave me close to 25mpg. Nothing else was been altered (such as timing) that can impact on the fuel consumption.
Next tune up, the 6's are OUT! |

terran u speaking sense men want to compare how much gas they burning when one man driving 2 miles a week and the other driving a 100 miles a week
what u need to do ir watch your odometer meter and record your mileage (eitherin km or miles)
each time you fillup record how much u spend in fuel and also record your mileage
after a month of driving add up the amount of gas u put and divide it by 4 if u use premium and 3.7 if u use super this will give u the number of liters u used
now add up your total distance travelled and divide it by the number of liters u used
this will give a better rep of the km/l or miles/liter and u will have something to compare
instead of comparing marbles to mangoes |

You mean 2.7.
All I do is reset the trip meter to zero whenever I fill up. On next fill up, I just read the trip meter and do the math based on how much it takes to fill up this time around. I normally do self service, so I stop the gas when it's "right up". That usually accounts for an additional 3 litres of gas after the pump triggers off first time around. |

Another thing, my mileage is based on using premium gas.
When I used super gas, economy was even better - about 28-30mpg - but was detrimental to performance. |

| Chaguanas to GB (on the highway) is 10km. So use that as a basis to gauge how much driving you are doing (and the conditions - traffic, free flow, stop and go, etc.). |

I have a blacktop 20v 5fwd AE110 GT Sport
2" Magnaflow exhaust, iridium class 6 plugs, Shaffeur Oil, 15" 205/50/15 Nankang tires.
running around 425-450 on a tank of super, heavy running might drop it to around 400.
hitting pos everyday from piarco and back and chag on weekends. spend around $75-$90 to top up once a week.
that $250 premium not too right hoss, check ur engine man something wrong there yes. |

defkerron, your figures are almost twice better than mine - your car being manual and seemingly enjoying more cruising than I do.
But, mikeae91 still hasn't told us what kind of running and distances he's doing. |

| mikeae91, then something is definitely wrong. Even if I moved around as you did, I'd probably burn around $100 for the week. |
