      EGR ports could be plugged. That can mess it up.

        dont feel bad, i get 270...i donno, imma have to test my o2 sensors, fuel pressure regulator...those are the 2 things i have not checke.d
        What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

        You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

              check your spark plugs, if theyre not firing properly it'll affect your mileage quite a bit

                  What gas do you use. I wanted to ask this before on the other thread but never did. I go to mobile and tried both the 87 and the 89 octane. I barely hit 300. Once i hit the halfway mark, it just shoots down.

                    using 87 lately...oh hint on gas mileage: if your daily driving consists of shifts above 3000 rpm then your gas mileage is your own fault, slow it down and take it easy

                      I can achieve 600kms(372 miles) on a full tank of gas on mine..maybe coz i dont go pass 3.5k rpm on normal driving..

                        I average around 380 on a full tank with a mix of freeway/city driving...I'm usually at about 180-200 miles before it the needle starts dipping below the mid point.

                        Most I've gotten was about ~425 miles all freeway going to Seattle...and the car started sputtering so 425 seems to be my limit.

                          I get about 220 with city driving. I will have to back off on the above 3k shifts.

                          You think if I swap my fuel filter I will be able to get some better mileage?

                              how the F' do you know that your egr ports are PLUGGED?????

                              and what does the egr cap do to benefit your car?
