I would get 20-21 in the STI, I had to keep close track of it for taxes. My vette has a handy little computer that tells me my average , so far Im around 18-19 for the last 6 months,
would be better if I ever used 6th gear, Ive seriously only used it TWICE, they made the vette 6th really tall so they could put 28mpg on the window sticker, but otherwise its pretty useless, for comparison the vette 4th gear is the same ratio as my sti 6th!

I average around 16mpg if I drive conservatively but something happens every once and awhile, its really strange but I swear that my car talks to me and it is saying(in a psychotic voice)"Redline me, Redline me" and at that point I say to myself, "what the hell" then I punch it and thus my mpg goes down.

you all should run a couple takes through with fuel injector cleaner, it will make a big difference.

I recently lowered the boost on my MBC from 17psi to 14.5psi. Was getting 20-22mpg, now see about 24-26mpg. still pulls strong on an EQ tune.

About 20-22 mpg for me.. mostly local. I might hit 24 if I'm on the highway only, use cruise control and have a tailwind. I'd love to get better mileage. Our 91 Honda Accord gets 27-29 mpg.

I drive mainly city and shift 3-3500 rpms. Stock 2.0 WRX gets around...22-24 that is ALL city with very little highway. If I use highway for half the tank,usually 26-27 mpg....I take it slow, I make sure the boost needle doesnt go above 0 LOL (Stock Wrx Factory boost gauge)
