Just for reference, 220mi at a tank is barely 20mpg (assuming a 12.7gal
tank). Of course at 10gal (to refill) it's 22.

On long drives(to and from track events) I average between 26 and 28mpg which is
approximately 20% better mileage than I used to get before the new engine and
turbo was installed. Also, this is with me TOWING approximately 600lbs via my
HF trailer. When I use my tire tail I usually see ~24mpg, but I am driving
quite a bit faster too. I don't monitor street driving mileage, but I
never go less than 220 miles between fill-ups.
