Tune, gear, and type of driving are going to play a big role. My guess would be 22 mpg on the highway.

Thanks

I had the same set up and also grabbing the unit as soon as I knew I wouldn't smokem. the car ran strong from the launch til the finish line. I also had a tci super street fighter 3500 stall converter. if you don't have a stall I would recommend getting one. I have a streetfighter 3000 stall for sale with only 150 miles on it and no burnouts or track passes. I out it in my wifes car but she didn't like it. I'll giv it to you for $250.
