New to site
As the name implies I drive a Dodge Neon SRT-4. I got interested in hypermiling after seeing a news report on it on some station or other. I've been experimenting on my own but decided to sign up here to get a few pointers from some of the more experienced guys/gals. The most i've squeezed out of my car is 31mpg which may not sound like much, except most of my friends that own this car get only 20-23mpg. Anyway, happy hyper-miling. ;)

31mpg out of a car that usually gets 20-23 is pretty good... you'll find that every car has it's limitation, unless you REALLY push it. What kind of things are you doing now to get 31mpg? |
Nice Car
Hey nice car :thumbup: Too bad they quit making the Neon platform -- really a good chassis for Autocross, etc.
I say 31 is amazing with the high-boost turbo and race-gearing of your vehicle. Keeping out of boost is probably the best bet. Do you have any engine managment controllers, etc? Best FE... RH77 |

Welcome to GS! I took the liberty of assuming it was a 2005 and looked here : https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/calcu...umn=1&id=20696 Attachment 1047 Sooooo, it looks like you are already beating EPA by 6 to 9 MPG, :thumbup: :D . CarloSW2 |
Welcome! Those little tubo Neon's are awesome in my book :) Always liked the looks and power. Too bad gas is so pricey ;) Anyways, enjoy the site, look around and ask LOTS of questions!
