Default Can I get better gas mileage?

So, I have an 02 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 and it is a daily driver. Current mods are magnaflow cat-back, K&N air filter, SLP smooth bellows and the SLP Cold-Air Induction. I'd say it is 60% city and 40% highway driving, mainly for going to work and school. I usually get about 250-275 miles to the tank which translates into about 20-23 mpg. I was curious to know if there are any other mods that I can do to my car that will bump up my gas mileage? besides babying it even more...lol...thanks!

Keeping off the gas is basically the only way.
