What kind of mileage do you guys normally get? With my monte i was usualy getting 14/16 city highway, and this weekend i went on a road trip to corpus, bout 300 miles away, and i got 26/28 mpg. i know the new plugs, wires, coil pack and downpipe made a dif... but WOW i wasnt expecting that much of an improvement.

Highway I can get 33/34 MPG

Around the city it depends, also I haven't really done the math for it.

I have gotten 33 out of my Monte, once with cruise set on 70 MPH ALL highway mileage.

USUALLY I average 24-26 with everyday driving which is 80% HWY for me between 75 and 90 MPH, with the occasional WOT. So that is pretty good if you ask me.

When I drove the car to Missouri from California, I averaged 28 MPG with cruise control on 80/85, with the occasional high speed WOT pass. Also, damn good IMO considering the driving conditions. Plus the car was FULL at the time (4 passengers, and trunk FULL).
