H/C mpg?

I'm thinking of putting an EX230/236 cam into my TA and I'm wondering if you guys think that my mpg would drop much. I drive in the city most of the time so my stall (3200) is not locked. Sense this cam does not make much power till around 3K unlike the stock cam would it then use less fuel while the stall is slipping? So what do you guys think? I only get around 13-16 in the city as it is.

Thanks

Not sure about city, but i get 24mpg highway(mods in sig). I might use a little more in the city than i did when it was stock but i haven't really noticed.

Mine is much more aggressive than your setup, but I averaged 13.3mpg on my last tank.
