I take it you are talking Imperial Gallons. That is about correct.

in northern calif, with elevation included, that is hills, up and down freeways, etc....50/50 mix of freeway and highway with an average speed of bout 30 mph...i get 21-23 mpg. on a few long range trips i have seen 28 mpg, i am guessing i could get better on trips ...now that the car has more miles on it. worst mileage, track day and break in tank about 18mpg.

lowest was about 20.x mpg avg over a tank, highest 30.x mpg over a tank (once), average over the car's life is about 24mpg.

Driving habits are 90% either track or road trip driving, 10% around town.

I've been keeping track of mine for a few months now and I am averageing about 22 mpg with mostly city, and some 500 mile round trips here and there. I made a excel spread sheet, so it' easy to keep track now.

before turbo i would get 20-25 depending on how much i ripped on it. that was with 70% highway driving. i have yet to figure out the mileage with turbo but i think its somewhere in the high teens.
