If you have a 190 Hp 3.2 L, and a 235 Hp 3.0L, both natural aspirated V6s, which would use more gas?

my money would be on the 3.0L using more gas.
This is because it requires more tuning, and likely uses more fuel.
This is proven by the fact that the new civic Si 2.0L 4 cyl has the same gas conumption as the new 4.0L V6 Mustang.

It depends on what car they're in. Lighter weight is going to make a much bigger difference than the engine itself.
If the engines are in identical cars, I would guess the 190 hp one, simply because you've got to burn more gas to make more horsepower.

3.2 V6 would definitely use more gas, I think. Honda Accord's are that big and they use a lot to fill up the take. Get a hybrid or a V4.

3.2L would have to run higher rpm for the same effect (speed/distance)therefore feeding more fuel to the engine.
