My Camaro SS got around 10-14 in mixed driving. I get around 20-22 in mixed driving with the Evo. I recently did a longer trip with about 300 miles of freeway at around 80 and 200 miles of twisties and city with a heavier foot. I averaged 26mpg over the entire trip. I thought that was pretty darn good.

We also have a Subaru Forester XT with a 2.5L turbo (basically it's an STI engine with a different turbo, intake and ECU). It averaged almost exactly the same MPG on the same exact trip. My wife drove the XT and doesn't have quite the lead foot that I do.

Boost is load dependent. I can take the car to 5K rpm without ever getting out of negative vacuum. It's all about throttle position.

I average about 21mpg usually. I think my car runs a little richer than average. It's always around 14.3 A/F during lite cruise.

Also when I took it the 1/4 it used almost a quarter tank after just 4 passes.

I've had it 10 weeks and it has 5800 miles. I want to slow down the miles, but I just can't seem to stop driving it everywhere. My beater hasn't been driven in months.

Hey Seth still racking the miles I see. Any crusies down that deserted highway at 130 recently? I am not sure I understand your sig. What was upgraded on 7/19 the cruise control?
