gas mileage?

I consistantly get 23-24mpg which gets me right at 400 miles to a tank. I can't believe a Z would only get 220 miles to a tank of gas.

Which is what led to my assertion that the MAF was messed up by the install possibly.

220 if you are having fun in the Z. 400miles is achievable but you have to drive it like an 80 year old on a Sunday morning or you do 90% highway with frugal driving style.
