Default F/I owners - what mpg are you getting?

Can you F/I owners post set up and average city/highway mpg.
I am close making final choice for F/I set up for my car.

If you're going by the MPG you read on you combination gauge and you don't have a reflashed ECU that takes into account the larger injectors it is wrong.

The ECU has no way of knowing you're running higher fuel pressure or you have a greddy emanage controlling larger injectors. The only way to properly figure it out is to do it the old fashioned way. Divide how many gallons you burned through in how many miles you drove.
