i ran a text in my 92 xj and was so psyched for my results, i started my day at a specific gas station and pump, filled my tank and drove a 40 mile loop with about 40-50% freeway driving, came back to the exact same pump and topped it back off, then went home and used google maps to find outexactly how far i'd gone.
here's my specs
92 4dr 4.0 bored .30 over with comp cam (low end power), and everything else stock on motor, no boltons or exhaust, ax15, and 411 gears, 35 x15.50 tsl sx's and about a seven inch long arm kit, with fat-huge-ass bumpers and winch and sliders. i cruised at 2,100 rpm on the freeway in fifth gear (dont know how fast that is) and drove nice and easy around town (but faster than your granpa mind you)
it took 2.3 gallons to drive 39.8 miles, by my math thats 17.3 mpg!
although it was only 40 miles thats still a great ball park, in a week or two i will be switching back to my k and n cold air, bigger throttle body and purple horny glass pack with a hollow cat (i rarely drive it so don't tell me about emissions blah blah) and i'll run the route again and report back
