I've noticed rediculous gas mileage as well, as much as 30mpg with regular runs to 8200rpm. My AP1 would get 24mpg max with NO VTEC....
Interesting.
BTW, my J's 60RS did not fit my '06. Just because it's a single doesn't mean it'll fit.

Awesome choice man. I got the same exact 06. And I traded-up from an 03. I have to agree with everything you said. I love my 06 so much more than my 03. To me it doesn't feel like a different car, but rather the same car, but just a whole lot better. After reading a few comments, I do agree that I miss the 9k, but not enough to justify everything that I like about this car better. Oh and wait till you get past the break in period... vtec feels a lot smoother. Congrats on your purchase!!!

You know the rear speakers arent too great. Try fading all the way to the rears and turn the radio up and youll see what im tlaking about. I would replace the rears with aftermarket speakers, if they fit.

The seats are absolutely amazing... everyone that has been in the car has always commented on how comfortable the seats are and how they wrap around them.
The clock and the temp gauge is cool cause it lets me know if I'm late for work without looking at my cell phone and let's me know if it's good enought to put the top down at night...
Don't forget the oil life feature... which tells you the percent of oil life left based on miles and driving habits.
Just wait until you get into VTEC!!!!...

Man, I would kill to have the computer on my car tell me oil temp, ambient/outside air temp, % of oil remaining / oil level, miles to empty, etc. I don't suppose that will fit on an 04, right?

so your j's didnt fit? umm i just look a quick look when i was going my coilovers and it looked like it would be okay, but since your j's doesnt fit i really doubt my spugen TI will.... blah time to look for a new exhaust i guess..
