I'll check this weekend and get back to you.

I have a '70 2.2T in my car. It's essentially stock.

16mpg with my, fairly stock '71 911T 2.2l with Webers. This was back country road driving and very little freeway miles.

In my 73 2.4 with MFI, I get 15-18 street driving and run premium, the higher the octane the better. On the track, that is a different story!

When I had my '72E w/ Webers, I got around 15 mpg around town. Never took it on a trip, so I don't know about freeway driving. The 2.4L engine had a compression ratio of something like 8.2:1, so regular was fine.

Wow, I thought I got bad mileage. The first time I drove the car from NC to MD, I got 27mpg, 2.2T. Lately around town, about 22 mpg. My 89 3.2 gets between 22-23 mpg. All 93 octane. Honestly, I am not lying. Steve

In town, my 2.4S MFI gets around 12-15 depending on my right foot. On the highway,19-21 mpg. On the track, racing less than 10 more like 8. YMMV (literally)
