[QUOTE="Alchemis, post: 1779457, member: 20898"] to every new and potential owner of RE engines.... not sure how do we pronounce this FAQ.. as FACK ? FxCK? ehehhe just joking.... hope you all get your questions answered in this thread... Lesson 1 Fuel Consumption Fuel consumption of a Rotary Engine is well know to be thirsty. and it's VERY thirsty. we're talking about a tank of 65 Litre 95 Octane and give you 250 KM in those small roads and traffic jams.... highways will set you up about 300km to 320 KM. these numbers are based on stock twin turbos. because the turbos spin up relatively EARLY around 2.5K RPM compared to Evo or Scoobies, thus alot more petrol is required. and the full twin spins in around 4.5 K RPM. some of our guys had their car converted to single turbo. some of them are better in fuel milliage. this is due to their turbos are operating like Evo or Scoobies... it starts spinning around 4 K RPM that range.. so.. anything below 4K RPM they are theoritically and practically running like NA. that's difficult to say as well.. if those single turbo guys were running like 1000 CC injectors all 4 round.... it's different story.... baseline is.... Rotary Engines are damn thirsty....get ready to contribute to Shell, Petronas, Caltex etc... making them rich.... :) [/QUOTE]
