15-20mpg should sound about right.

I get about 360 miles to a tank. So it's about 21 or 22 mpg. But that was when I was pussyfooting most of the time. I had to floor it every now and then to make sure the car still works...

Oh, and I use premium. That helps along with when I'm just normally driving, I shift at about 2500 rpms.

Stock NA? You should see up to 23-24 MPG on the highway if the engine is healthy. Most people see around 20 MPG average. Heavily modified cars see 12-15 MPG.
