I can guarantee two things, first you are not getting 420 miles per tank unless you go down hill continually and never go back! According to you, you're getting 100 miles per tank more than the rest of us! Secondly, K&N short ram intake will zap 30% of your WHP once the outside temp gets close to 80 degrees...it's called "Heat Soak!" That too will cost you gas mileage! Next time you calculate your gas mileage take your shoes off, counting on just your fingers isn't working!

20 gallon tank at 22mpg... how is this impossible? My daily commute is through a lot of hills on the highway and I'm getting 380 miles per tank. On my last road trip up to Olympia I got almost 450 out of a tank.

City driving however I'm lucky to get 250 miles on a tank
