mileage
ok on a full tank of 90 octane i get 235 on a whole tank, on 92 octance i get 237. each are averaged out of two tanks. i only boost when merging wiht traffic i use it twice a day but nothing pedal happy. its about 50/50 freeway/city driving. i dunno what you other 94 ssei'* are getting but, this has to be low, right? what should i do to try and get the mileage better?

New o2 is the big one, plugs wires, PCV, properly inflated tires, clean injectors, all uneccessary junk outta the car. I know you have a new air filter, etc.
If you really wanna dig, synthetic oil will, new tranny fluid, lighter rims etc.

I think that i have made a revealtion. I have driven my car all the way to empty and filled it up, driven the car to half a tank and filled it up. I get better gas milage when i only go to half a tank
In all city i get 16 MPG I cant remember the miles, but when i was driving 80+ miles to work and back I was getting 200+miles on a half or tank, of regular, nothin fancy
