Best I ever got on my TII was 26 mpg.......city driving is probably around 15. Rtek 1.5, Racing Beat Turbo Back and about 10 psi. I didn't buy this car to save gas. ;-)

but thats just not as fun...
My GTUs gets around at least 22 mpg highway believe it or not. It used to be much worse until I did a full tune up, fluid change (w/ water wetter), and replaced the O2 sensor all of which helped I'm sure...

Nope.
'89 GTUs, cone filter with a box, 2.5" off my manifold to a resinator, then 3" back to a y-pipe, and 2.5" off the Y to two ebay mufflers. Had a complete tune-up, also had a vac leak. Running at around 75-80mph on the highway between Ohio/Pennsylvania, yes my aux ports were open since that's around 3750-4000rpm on that car. EGT's were around 730C, just barely sitting in closed-loop.

um.. I just got 11 MPG on my first tank of gas after my Megasquirt was put in.. Of course, I only really used about half a tank, and this only included about 60 miles of actual "driving", a lot of idling and 11 autocross runs... So I'm happy with it

My last fillup (yesterday) was 28.18 mpg, and I bet if I could keep my foot out of it I could hit 30 easily...
How the heck are you in closed loop at 3750 rpms? I thought closed loop kicked out at 3500?
