I've gotten 28.5 with my F20 that has over 100,000 miles I usually get 25-26 though. I want to do a freeway drive to see what she'll really get.

Yea my F20 was only averaging about 25mpgs, under normal conditions. Thats why I got excited about this tank because I was driving normally. I think the difference is that with the extra displacement I find my self using the taller gears more. For example I can now go into 6th on flat ground at sub 50mph speeds comfortably I heart this combo right now, and honestly I think its a little bit quieter most of the time

If I'm not accelerating anymore, I put mine in 6th at 35mph. I can't wait for a tune. The F20 under 2.5k is a dog.

I've messed with the AP2 on GT5 and I can see how the gearing/displacement would make it much nicer around town. I didn't like how the gearing felt on the tracks though; seems like you're up-shifting to often. But yeah, that's just a game.

it looks like a kitchen sink strainer should put a velocity stack over the top of it if not going to run a filter

The odds of a velocity stack fitting with the kit are slim. This thing bumped my mph from 118 to 123 in the 1/4.
