350 on a tank on a car making 450+ rwhp w/ upgraded injectors and such?

I was getting around 23-24mpg, I got around 28 on our cruise up north which was mostly highway, and the two tanks before that I got ~27 but I was being pretty easy on the car, shifting a little earlier than I normally do.

I have never gotten beter then 20 in my speed6. But then again I didn't buy the car to drive slow or easy. Thats why god made Kia.

I usually get 300 to a tank probably. I've gotten more and less. I got about 27mpg on the way up north for the cruise.

Don't worry too much about tank numbers. There are way too many factors like how close to empty before each individual gets a fill, if someone fills extra after the pump stops, etc.

I divide miles driven by gallons filled to get as close a possible and I average 22-23mpg normally and can get 28-29 on a long highway trip.

I round out my averages and run to about 28-30mpg.... i'm not in the boost often.... at least in traffic.

When driving a lot of highway I would average about 28-30 mpg.
Now that I only drive here and there I am getting about 23 at best.

I'm getting like 230 - 240 a tank. I think 250 is the highest I have seen.

I always fill the tank up until gas is almost coming out the hole, but I refill as soon as the light goes on....I also do alot of stop and go driving, not too much highway, so I cant really comment on the highway mileage.

MrMatt - I was talking about the speed3 not the cobra....the cobra I get around 220 miles to the tank, and im in boost alot

On my 6, 300 to the light is 22 mpg. Every 15 miles is an additional mpg. Generally around town I get 23 mpg and on trips from 26-29 depending on speed and speed consistency. I ended up getting 26.25 on the cruise because we were varying speed wildly from 60 to 80 mph.

I do tend to do approximately 1 mpg better on the highway if I can avoid ethanol fuel.

04cobra, check your actual mpg from fillup to fill up. Going by what you get from a totaly filled tank to the time when the light comes on is not very accurate since who knows exactly how much gas is left when the light comes on.
