Beats mine but I drive about 98% city and get 17mpg. I also tend to jump on it a lot also.

I'm starting to plan my mods. I'd like to keep it 87 since I do about 550 miles a week. I'm planning a C&L CAI with an 87 tune, and cat forward headers for right now, as well as some sort of muffler upgrade. I've noticed that the members who have 25-27 mpg in their sigs are all running 91-93 tunes so I'm assuning the mileage differences are timing related. Whats the most mileage that could be had with an 87 tune? I didn't buy my GT for gas mileage, I traded in a 2007 Focus for it, but I'd like to max out what I can get. Less gas = more money for mods!

91-93 burns better, buy it. $1.50 more per fill-up is nothing. Better mileage too.
