I never bothered to calculate. It's not easy when you dont have a power FC or upgraded computer.

WTF? you dont need a PFC...
when you get gas, just get a reciet. it shows you exactly how many gallons you used on your previous journey.
just take the number of miles you traveled on one tank and divide it by the number of gallons you used.

its a very simple equation.

oh and to answer the original question, i get about 15-17 on average. (this includes both city and highway driving)

Mine has dropped as well. The PFC definitely makes my car run richer than with the stock ECU. Oh well, better a little too rich than a little too lean I guess.

Mine's not a daily driver (yet, ), so most of my miles are fairly hard city and highway driving. I'm getting about 14-15 mpg.
