Default What kind of gas mileage do B16s get?

If you've got a B16 in your car (hybrid, Civic Si, Del Sol VTEC) please post your setup and your gas mileage. Thanks.

I'm guessing a stock or mildly built b16 will give you a miles per gallon in the low to mid 20's.

Music to my ears. But I guess one should realistically expect low 20's?

very short gearing = not so good on gas.
