well if you wouldnt drive like a pissed off teenager you would get decent GM. You should be getting close to 300-330ish to a tank.. you dont even have any mods that kill gas mileage. I only noticed about 2-4mpg decrease when i got gears. My gas mileage went up in the city.

+1 right foot mod make a big difference,

Also flooring it in 5th and using the torque to putt past people around town at like 45 or 50 burns a lot of gas, buts that's just my personal experience idk if it anyone else has noticed that too.

yea 5th gear passing is no good. its better just to downshift and pass.

EDIT: and agar...your car seems like its running rich because u have an o/r midpipe. your gonna smell more gas when u take out cats.

LOL, anyways have you been to a dyno or do you have access to a wide band 02. thats the only way to tell if you really are running rich.
