My mpg numbers

I have been at 14.6 and 15 mpg my last 2 tanks. I do almost all city driving. I run premium and have md 5/16 spacer,z tube,kn filter,coupe mid with 18" coupes. Thats about 250 a tank at 16 gal fill up because I cant find the how to on gas tank fix. Do these numbers seem right? I had a g8 gt getting 16 town-20 hwy

The awd gets lower gas mileage but most people are around 18 mpg I believe. Depends how you drive.
