MPG for you guys with MPPK + MPE

Hashtag · 08-03-2018, 04:32 PM

What's the highest MPG you guys are getting with the MPPK+MPE combo? On my longer road trips (mainly highway miles) I'm only getting 21-22 mpg and trying to be fuel efficient.

Yes, I know there's a lot of factors involved and you obviously will sacrifice fuel efficiency when you buy these mods.

That seems pretty low to me. I have a JB Stage 1 and haven't suffered a significant drop. What is your cruising speed on the highway?

Usually around 75-80

BMW says there is no significant change in fuel economy with mppk tune. I tend to agree as my mpg have not suffered. Do you carry a lot of stuff/ cargo in the X5?

I have MPPK, MPE and RC GTS Black, not bad for an average speed of 73.3 mph over 1161 miles.

I can get nearly 23mpg on the highway doing 80+ with my 50i with Dinan tune. Seems like you should be getting more than that.

Hmm I'll try driving a little more fuel friendly and see if I can get that number up.

My X5 is the family car, so I'm probably carrying 4-500 lbs in passengers and baby gear. I do have the 3rd row and run flats too.

You want to buy MPPK and MPE and you're concerned with mpgs??
These two are not compatible!

Haha I have no problem burning fossil fuels. I'm just curious to know what everyone else is getting and if I just have a lead foot.

17.5 mpg with average speed 45mph. 65% stuck in traffic, 35% freeway

Can't really compare unless everyone drives exactly the same on the same road and with same traffic conditions. When I used to live in the city with stop and go traffic my mpg was at 13 ~15 mpg. Now I drive mostly highway speeds and I'm getting 21 / 22 mpg consistently.

I feel better now to hear that you get 13-15mpg before. I thought that I am the worse.
