On average I get about 22mpg on 92 running 28psi which I think is around 280ish miles to the tank. Cant remember my worst...The best I ever got one time was like 30+ on the highway not stopping while doing the speed limit, after I cleaned my MAF and got tuned with lean cruising AFR's; it was a fluke.

It's all about how controlled you are. Best I've done was just past 300.

Best on 93-320
Best on e85-240

Not boosting at all...it was hard...but wanted to see what I could get the best outta both...and those are it so far...def not gonna be able to beat the 320 though...I only run e85 now...it's way funner with that stuff in the tank

My car fuel light turns on when I have about 3 gallons left. Does that sound about right to you guys?

I believe it is a 14 gallon tank and when I fill back up, it takes about 11 gallons.

Boosting is so much fun, but it kills more gas than a V8.
