i use my car as a DD just from school to home and work usually, so im never on the interstate or highways
i have the ECUTUNE stage 1 chip so i can use regular gasoline (i use 87 octane), but im getting anywhere from 12-15 mpg

really, what improves gas mileage?
Theres a lot of factors. Make sure your tires are properly inflated. use some fuel injector cleaner. make sure your car is properly tuned up ( air filter, spark plugs etc), make sure theres no stored codes. Short trips will kill the mileage also, so try doing all of your errands in one run.
