I'm in Denver and I have pretty much all the basic bolt-ons and a custom flash and I average about 23 mpg around town, got 28.5 once on the only somewhat long trip my car has been on, about a 6 hour drive there and back.

My highest is 340 miles on 12.5 gallons (27.2mpg, all highway, 80mph average spd). I average about 330 miles on 13 gallons (25.4mpg) most of the time on highway (80-85mph). Even when I was tuning and doing a good number of 3rd gear pulls (+15 with cool down driving of course) I managed 240 miles on 12 gallons. In the city I am probably looking at 280+ miles on 13 gallons most of the time (21.5mpg).

You must have one of those better mpg evos
My mileage doesn't seem to suffer from mods. It averages 22-23mpg since day 1.
The most miles I have gone before buring fumes is around 320, and I put about 13.6 gals in.

for those grannies that shift each gear at 2K, sure you can get 300 miles per tank. The most i've ever had on a tank was about 250, but i average 220-230

I guess I'm average as well because I get between 220 to 240 miles per tank fill up. It all depends if I'm driving in a spirited manner or driving like grandma.

over my last ~1700 miles/7 tanks I've averaged 21.94 mpg with my best being 23.55 which was on my last tank. For all they were mostly highway but not long trips, AC on most of the time. Only difference was for the last tank, I didn't go WOT at all. On the tank with my lowest mpg, 19.17, I had done a few WOT 1st-3rd gear pulls. BTW I'm bone stock.
