Also make sure your MAF is calibrated to the injectors your runining so that you have the proper air/gas ratio....

you guys are funny you give this guy a lot of maybe this will work besides looking at the real problem. Low Gas Mileage so that means fuel right. You replaced all the ignition stuff what about the fuel stuff like FUEL FILTER!!!!! If clogged fuel cant go though so the engine and the fuel pump work harder to pump more fuel. I would start there and see if that helps
