that rpm is normal for that mph, you should still be able to get over 30 mpg on the hwy, search more these questions have been answered many times

That would be because of the wonderful B16 trans.

<--- 70mph @ 4,000rpms 28mpg highway with chipped P28

Going from a SOHC to a B16A may seem like it is revving high but the b16 tranny's gear are shorter. This is normal

i get 32 mpg on the highway with mine.....its rather annoying how high it is indeed. But i did manage 420 miles with it one tank once.
