I keep my gauges set on the MPG reading for the odometer. I'm averaging around 23 in the city and 27 on the highway. I always use 92 octane but I dont know if it makes a difference or not.

Averaging around 20 for city/highway driving. Freeways are pretty small here so most of my driving is in city areas. Plus lots of stop and go traffic during the times I am actively on the roads. Used to get around 24 before putting in the intake and the exhaust. But this change is probably because I like to press the gas to hear the car go "VROOM".



Edit: Forgot to add, I mainly use 87 octane. Thinking of using 91 but have not decide yet and not sure if that will make a whole lot of difference.

My personal best for gas mileage was 48.8 mpg with an even mix of peak hour, city, and freeway driving. Most of the time, with occasional BOOT IT moments, I get around 45-46 mpg.
