This is achieved around the low PSL highways in Rhode Island. Tune is stock. No bolt-ons. I was driving very gently.

I used to get ~25 mpg when the car was brand new, then it started to deteriorate after ~10,000 miles to about 20 mpg. I recently changed spark plugs (same p/n as OEM), and mpg went back to 25~26. I also titrated a bottle of RedLine SI-1 to the gas tank (1/8 of the bottle for every tank) and the car reached 27.2 mpg. Hooray!!!

Best i ever got was ~26mpg a few months ago. Late evening so no traffic, didn't go over 2500rpms and coasted to stop signs/red lights. Rarely do I drive like this, lol
That's with a CBRD tune and a few basic bolt-ons.

with a 7670 turbo kit and tmp cams i got 25 mpg once when using cruise control at 65mph on a long drive, super boring but i was dead (driving back from the track). so i didnt mind taking it easy. usually get about 17-20 though.
