After oil change, spark plug change, new CAI cone filter change, MAS sensor clean, I'm up to 317 miles so far, im on SUPER EMPTY, but I think I have another 10 miles before im stuck. that's an average of about 20 mostly city driving.

I am in the process of "testing it" to find out if I have to take it in. 12.2MPG according to NAV. I went ~120 miles with a friggin' 1/2 tank of gas! I will use a couple more tanks to find out if it's a problem for sure. This 120 miles is all short, city driving trips + letting it warm up for 10 mins outside each morning + granny driving style (to find out if it's a problem ;-)).
It could be that your driving around pretty hilly hills in Seattle. I just moved to Temecula California from Seattle. Im getting getting pretty good mpg since the area I live in now is pretty flat. I have some hills but non that great compare to Seattle. Just my 2 cent
