With stage 2 now and mostly freeway miles, I get 18-19 mpg driving at an average speed of 80 mph + or - 30 mph (more + than - )
Btw if u take off the bov, it will improve your gas mileage.

w/ bov 190-200 miles for 13 gallons
w/o bov 210-230 miles for 13 gallons
Unless your boosting at or over 20psi, your stock bpv will be fine and if you want the sound take out the "snorkel"
