Fuel Economy

dom888 · 03-20-2005, 03:22 PM

I've got a 1998 S4 Avant which has been chipped by AMD to 323bhp and 402lbs. Now, I wasn't expecting fantastic fuel economy, but I'm getting less than 16mpg on town driving with the odd spurt on a clear stretch. Is this about right, or is there something wrong?

What are you guys/gals averaging?

Actually thats pretty good fuel economy. I've got just got my A4 with the 1.8T QU not chipped yet so its running stock at 150hp, and I get anywhere from 20-22 depending upon traffic in the week so.....
