It's 14. I drive 80% highway at 70-80 MPH. My trip computers says 26.7 mpg avg. I get 300-330 a tank, I fill up when the things below E. I drive pretty normal, use cruise control whenever I'm on the highway. I jump on it every once in awhile.

I agree somewhat with the other posts. The Star specs are one of the softest treads you can get, I only got 17k out of my stock tires. Switch to a high performance all season and you'll get 30k plus. IMO this is a great family car and I think you MPG is right on for all city driving. However you...

Get an Intake first. BOV and TIP and be hit or miss on power gains, the intake will for sure give power gains. As to the rest; I bet 90% of the people that claim the stock BPV leaks don't have proof, just rumors. I fell victim to it and got a Synapse, they showed it made more HP on their dyno...

This is a strange problem indeed. I have 77k on mine and I still avg 26.6. I don't think seafoam would do anything with only 20k mile or whatever on it. I say go with the basic tuneup and change the intake, but hell 10 mpg means something is seriously not right. The soot in the exhaust pipe is...

I would do it, You basically bought a $15-17k car for 8k. I'd drop it off at Mazda and say "Fix it". s*** I'd spend up to $1,000 dollars to fix it for what you payed for it. could even fix it and flip it, make a nice profit.

Looks like the kit is $256, fittings and hoses included. For the money intake and maybe a new motor mount or inserts may be more worth while. MSMS3 No I don't have any real time data or before and afters, I'm a chump. Butt dyno likes and and strongly feel that my valve is more responsive than...

Check synapse out, I love mine, they just release a new one thats smaller. Great whoosh sound. http://synapseengineering.pinnaclecart.com/catalog/Synchronic_Diverter_Valves-16-1.html MSMS3 - I dyno 260 to the wheels with a new BPV and a COBB SRI, explain that? My valve responds much quicker...

If at first you don't succeed, you're probably doing it wrong.

How do you have it wired? If I remember right one wire goes to a constant saurce and one to a switched(i.e. headlights or dash dimmed lights.) Sounds like the wire to the switched sauce came off or somthing.

I think the manual says 30-32
