that doesnt seem tooo far off, the 80mph is really hurting the mileage, for some reason, they all still like riding in the 55-60 mph zone. It's pretty bad when you can slap on a supercharger and get better mileage (25-30)

Maybe it's because the tune from the factory is conservative (rich). Like you said, I get better average MPG now (around 23) than I did from the factory (around 21).
Cruising down the highway at 60-65 MPH, I average just under 30 MPG.

I'm not running a 91 tune yet. I will be when I purchase a cold air intake and tuner in the coming months. The previous owner was running 91 and I like staying consistent when it comes to gas grades. I do have 285s and 255s, so that may be driving down the mileage. I guess an intake/tune/exhaust is just an outlet for better MPGs.

What is this, a Prius forum? ![Biggrinjester](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrinjester.gif)
Who cares about the mpg.. when it gets low, put more gas in it.

Canton tanks fit your engine theme well.

Thanks to all. I'll try and get some daylight shots of the clear corners today and post. Jed, Luis I see some clear corners in your future once you see them in person.

Hmm...Good question not sure when I'll bring the stang down again. If and when I add line locks and SS brake lines. If not probably not untill the R&R show in July. Maybe sooner if we do a cruise or something.
