Your best highway mpg?

What is your best highway mpg that you got with your X? List your mods if any.

I just installed a Cosworth drop in filter and im seeing about an extra 1 mpg on the highway, but I will need to fill my tank up all the way to see real results. Also, what else will increase the mpg? Will a downpipe and/or UICP help?

I commute 50 miles each day and then do a little city driving. I average around 20-21 mpg...depending on how much fun, or how much I want to save gas.

Car is stock.

I got 24.73 (calculated -- car said 24.9 on the display) on a trip to Washington DC and back from Morgantown WV -- very hilly and a 69mph average on the trip.
