The question you really need to address is this:
It takes 13hp to move the Miata down the road. How can the Miata most
efficiently make 13hp?
My best guess is that setting the fuel to leaner than stoich and using
wider throttle openings is the answer.

While it's trued that using more fuel (to a point) will provide
more power, the MPG will go down simply because you're using more
fuel. As I recall, testing by lots of folks has shown that leaning out
the mixture produces more power when the mixture is too rich (primarily
because we're all concerned about running too lean, and therefore, we
tune in higher fuel delivery, lower air to fuel, than necessary.)
I think that Bill or Keith spoke about this a long time ago when
discussing dyno tuning and mixtures.
