Also, I have a few bolt on mods on my car and who knows what effect they've had. I've read somewhere that some people have stated they're fuel economy going up with bolt ons but I do not think that is the case with me. I haven't taken a before and after measurement, but I'm pretty certain that I've lost some mileage after my bolt ons.

I am still running the OEM tires which may account for some of it, and while I do commute in traffic my average speed is probably in the 45-50MPH range even though there is a quite a bit of stop and go.

Just shows how much it can vary from one situation to the next.
