Re: Engine Request

Is the whole MPG thing for the SUV bodies broken? Or is it the grilles I'm using? I'm using the workshop Znopresk mods of the original game fixtures, the ones with like black plastic options (if you understand what I'm talking about). I get bloody awful gas mileage with this car family, my 6.2 "Fury" (700 horsepower) is getting like 13MPG, I've definitely gotten much higher with the same sort of engine before.

Re: Engine Request

Can you compare the aerodynamic effect of the SUV vs say a sedan?

26 MPG sounds okay to me, but if you post up the vehicle files I'll see if I can extract more out of it.

Re: Engine Request

With powerbands like this I've always found wide spaced 4 speed autos work well. But then I usually aim my cars at a lower tech approach then most.

Re: Engine Request

Its UK MPG, by the way. I can PM the car files later, but the main reason for the bad fuel economy is either the grilles or my awful tuning abilities.

Re: Engine Request

It's like a modern 4B-T, but gas!

Lordred, that motor is seriously awesome. I want to use it in everything I build from now on. :D
