ive done 400 on my stock ej1, good tuneup, 12 gallon tank on a 5spd ex trans d16z6
this is with a 330 mile road trip and city driving the other 60-70 miles
the way i see it: 12 gallons x 35 rated mpg hwy = 420 miles

you should get better mpg when you switch to the 5 spd.
when i had my d15 id aveage like 320-360.
my d16 averages 275-300.
and my b16 i average around 300 give or take.
all manuals only the b16 has mods.
