I used to average about 23 to 24 on the highway at 60-65 with my edge off and just my old edge jammer injectors. Now with my 220's i still average 15 in town and around 17 to 19 on the highway

I would say I get the same: about 15+ in town and 18 highway. Considering the HP, I won't complain...

Yeah, no one I know has them, but maybe some 40HP Economizer injectors and a good tuner, Banks Economind, J W/ A something would probably help out a lot.
Biggest thing is keeping your foot outta it, very hard for me Haha
