Valver mpg Vs 172 mpg

[16v_er]

Does the 172/cup give a better mpg than the valver?

 

[White16valver]

Some seem to, others don't!

(helpful, eh? lol)

 

[Justin_16vT]

depends how you drive lol the last 2 full tanks in my valver have lasted 160 miles lol

 

[jwarren2k2]

^^^ pmsl!!! i thought 240 was bad!!!

 

[Justin_16vT]

that shoulda been 160 miles each lol

 

[kully]

depends on how u drive ?:race: :race:

if the same driver is driving both in the same manner I'd say the more modern engine would always be more efficient.

Agree.

 

[edde]

The newer car should weight more (usually do) so that might even it out.
Also older engines can someotimes be less efficient than from new so a comparison is difficult.
I'm sure the Williams was advertised as 32mpg adverage MPG which is about the same as the 172.

Cheers guys for the info

Thought the 172 was 35 mpg ?

 

[The Hoff]

Nah 29-31mpg on average here.

 

[FincH]

Anything from 20-35Mpg here from town driving in a Valver.

 

[timo172cup]

I get average of 31-32mpg out of my cup driving pretty hard, can get 35-36 driving steady.

Had a valver before and driving it the same as cup I only got about 25 average.

Costs me about the same though as I use optimax in cup + used normal 95ron fuel in valver.

You're not driving hard enough then

The more modern the better.Even a 3 year old 182 wont be as good as a new 182

dont agree with that.

my 04 182 returns better MPG than some 05 / 55 182s I know of

 

[edde]

Milage does help loosen up engines to make better mpg.

 

[rory182]

yup edde totally agree, mines 24k well run in and pretty good all round.

 

[BRUN]

my valver does 30mpg
