93 Accord Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Right got it. Yeah i dont care for the slow part, i have my Accords for play, this MA8 of mine is just for mpg. But it seems the benefit of a D15 is small, not big enough to warrant a a change of car, engine or gearbox. Better off keeping the money and putting it in my tank lol.From what i can tell it seems the Vtec-e gets 45mpg, thats only 3-4 better than im getting now, not really worth the effort and money. However dispite that, at 45mpg, and cheaper fuel and running costs than a diesel, youd have to get a diesel with 55mpg plus to beat that. Most of these GDDB (German Default Diesel Boxes) are only getting 45-50mpg not worth it for what is just a nice badge and nice interior.
