So every car has an optimum speed to achieve the best MPG, I am curious if anyone knows what the optimum speed is for our celicas?

Both 5SFE and 7AFE. I know there is an acutal formula to figure it all out, but i dont have it anymore:(

thanks

I am not looking on improving my MPG as i am very happy with it.

There is a formula to calculate when an engine is its most effecient. by using how many joules of energy it is creating VS the amount of fuel required to acheive that much energy or something like that.

I know that everyone says 50-55 MPH is great, but i want to know what is the best for our cars, not just in general.
