That has to be the cleanest Si hatchback I've ever seen! I got a 90 Si myself but its been through hell and back. With a sohc ZC its getting 36 mpg with only the tires at 40 psi. Yours will probably get better!

The gearing is a bit short for the best economy, but damn, I love that car. White hatches make me drool.

ninja edit.

I thought Hondas, and especially the Civic Si, come with gearing that's far too short for fuel economy.

I'm not even sure I've ever heard of a vehicle that comes from the factory with gearing too tall for fuel economy.
