Is it me or does my MPG suck?
If your rpm's are consistently high and you are seeing boost
your mpg will suffer.If your current tune is safe you don't need
a retune.I get 21-22 mpg town and highway driving.If you are
concerned about your mpg you should be easier on the gas pedal lol.

My '02 WRX wagon gets 21-24 mpg consistently, with much of the mileage on one of NY's very nice parkways. I have 62K miles on it, and it is SRS. I do use about 1.5 qts of oil per 3K miles. I attribute this to a huge melt down that happened at 35K, when the cam belt tensioner let go and took out all the valves, etc. Even around town driving still shows 20+ mpg. I do not always spare the ponies, and it seems to make little difference, over all.

18 for the city is really not that bad....I get avarage of about 23mpg and I have a stage 5 wrx with a 18g at 23psi and %100 meth. When I to on trips to Lake tahow I get about 27mpg.....I think for the mods that you have you are fine, also how old is your oil, and have you changed your spark plugs?

I recently had a check engine light come on, and the O2 sensor was the culprit. Then, about 10 days later, it came on again! This time, the dealer recommended a re-flash that Subaru said would correct error messages (my readout was that there was a #1 and #3 misfire....but it was running fine.) Now my average mileage has picked up a bit....but it will take a long time to recover the flash cost, even at today' premium gas prices. Has anyone else had such a problem?
