Anybody notice this??

Since I've finally gotten my UTEC to control the boost better I've noticed even though I'm running rich as hell (smell of fuel plus backfire.. gotta tune this SOB soon!) I'm making 315 miles to a full tank. I was wondering if any of you other guys have noticed an increase in your overall miles?

I have no idea what you are running (cams,exhaust, etc.), but I have and probably will never see that kind of mileage. When my evo was bone stock, I was lucky to get 230 to a tank. Granted my driving style is not as conservative as it could be, but I don't boost everytime I step on the gas. Right now with my mods, I am getting roughly 210 to a tank. This is on a good day, with a stiff tail wind.

That must be all highway miles to get 315/tank, right?
