well, I if my calculations are correct, I got about 13MPG with half city half freeway driving. I'm gonna scan my car tomorrow in auto shop to see if maybe the o2's are bad or something.

I get like 10-12mpg but I think its just because I drive too fast, and there is something wrong where my car is running really rich. and I have 3.23's
