When I first got my FD, it only had a downpipe on it, and I drove 700 miles home averaging 25mpg with most of the speed between 65mph - 75mph. Now the car is modified...a lot...with pfc tune (bit outdated) and 4.77 final gear. I'm too scared to measure the current MPG but I guess its like 19 or below for the highway because at 65mph I'm revving at 3100rpm...

Just a heads up that most of your questions can be answered with the 3rd GEN FAQ's.
You can find the Spec sheet on the car.

This sounds reassuring... Not as bad as I thought. Then again, how about on E85? x_x
