Mine gets the same mileage, but that is with me in the throttle more so I think if I were to drive it like I used to it would actually improve.

With all my bolt ons and rig ups, I get bout 21 MPG highway, 18 city. Im in the process of making my own air/fuel ratio adjuster. Very cheap. All the parts from radio shack. Just need a dial in guage. So I would be able to adjust it on the highway to increase mileage. But its only experiment and not sure if its worth it.

What is your air/fuel ratio right now at wide open throttle? Mine was really rich at 10.0-1 before I put on headers and the ram air kit. I would like to get it leaner (if it hasn't done so since the additions)

Right now it will run at 12-1 WOT. That is just right for peak power. Any more fuel and its just wasted.
