Gas milage at 100% torque FWD?

y2ks2k · 10-12-2003, 12:08 PM

Anyone tested their mpg with the DCCD set to 100% FWD? I’m trying it right now. Im getting 16 mpg in my daily work commute and I need to get a bit better

best the dccd can do is 50/50, unless you removed the front driveshaft

Um ... 100% lock is bad on dry pavement. Do you mean 0% lock which sends 65% of the torque to the rear axle?

Say wha????? You're running what setting?

Read that owners manual and let's try this again.

i have'nt even touched the DCCD. even when the Sti was tested in i think Motor Trend?? they stated that switching from auto to differant setting in the manual mode made no differance in track times. i might play with it when i'm out on the dirt roads around my town or in the snow.
