The Celica has VVTi - that's where you're getting so much better efficiency out of it...
Remember the GTi6 is the most powerful 2.0 NA without any VVL/VVT, the only one that MIGHT be is one of the MR2 3S-GEs which has 170HP apparently, but I've a feeling that's actually in PS, so it's 166bhp in actuality... I've had a calculated 38.4mpg out of mine on the way to Cornwall, probably could have gotten more, but was driving at about 65 and had a small hoon at the end... So probably did about 40 average on the actual way down...
I find it's all about keeping the speed constant and ensuring you're not loading up hills, leave it slow down, but make sure you use the downhills to your advantage...
