I get a pretty regular 26mpg when I'm in the boost all the time... about 30 when I'm nice to it.... now that I have the DIS-2 on, I still need to be nice for a whole tank to see what I'll get... but lately, I just can't seem to keep my foot out of it :)

yeah i get about 30 when they dont dump sludge into the fuel in the winter, my best was 33.

if you really want better mpg, change your O2 and get de-catted exhaust :-D
