Default gas mileage

I just got a custom set-up on my 94 d16z6: DSM 14b, 1G BOV, SMIC, apex S-AFC, DSM 440 cc injectors, etc... , running 8 PSI (180 whp, 157 tq.) and I just checked my gas mileage for the first time yesterday and I am only getting 22 mpg. Does that seem Right?

that seems good but is that with boosting or just driving normal?

Heh, boosting makes a BIG difference. I've seen from 16-32mpg OBVIOUSLY depending on how I'm driving. Once in a while I go out in the country and tear ***, so I probably have an instantaneous MPG of less than 10

it was a little bit of freeway, in town, and hauling ***. I am just mad because the guy who installed the set-up for me said that my gas mileage would not really change. With i/h/e I was getting about 30 mpg.
