but c'mon you guys, why bother trying to get 35mpg on a civic si that is made for high revs? you dump the economobile for a sport compact to drive more ecnomically? use it for what it was made for!
the reason the auto civic does better is because its a newer engine with different gearing. simple as that.
and the auto fit is rated much better than the civic si as far as mileage goes, the auto fits city mileage almost bests the si's highway mileage!
not to mention the si drinks PREMIUM.

My best so far is 35mpg...but I am determined to get 40mpg...haha...this car is a great daily driver and when you want to have some fun just get it in Vtec and take it all the way to 8200rpm...or for my car, 8600rpm...heheh
