q about mileage
How many miles do you guys normally get from a full tank of gas? Cause i feel like i use to get alot more than i do now. SO maybe theres a problem but i don't even know what it could be. I get high 200s n i'm not boosted.

400! WOW! You must BABY your car and drive nearly every mile at 55mph
I get about 24ish mpg driving on the more aggressive side with acceleration. I do a mix of highway and city

400/tank mostly highway. 325-350/tank mostly city. My ego doesn't require regular trips to 5K RPMs so I usually shift between 3K and 3.5K.

i still call bs on that 400 miles per tank. even if you do alot of driving on the highway. i do 125 mile all interstate drive on monday morning and i go 90 to 105 mph, your rpms are just too high. now granted i an climbing up foothills and slow down and speed up to get by traffic and ofcourse state troopers.
to get 400 miles per tank with a 14.5 gallon tank, you would have to be getting a constant 27 mpg. that is extremely possible if you don't go over 70 mph. so don't lie and say you spend alot of time going 90.

I usually do 250 on 3/4ths of a tank. I fill up with 1/4th left. I don't like to starve my baby

well, actually, short shifting can cause increased gas consumtion i think.
