500?? Good Jesus! The most I have gotten out of a tank was like 340. I'm pretty sure I got out of my car and gave it a hug after that. Most of the time I see 220-260 in town. Your speedometer must read really high or something.

I just make 200 to a tank on the street. Highway would prob be 220 - 240. When I first bought my car it only had a borla cat back on it. I got about 230 on the street. After the SLP CAI, Lid, and K&N I droped to 200. More air = more power = more gas

The only way this is theoretically happening to you is if you have gears and your car is not programmed for them. In which case your speedo is off and your odometer racks up the miles faster than you actually are......other than that, Im sticking to my original 
post.
