Default jdm tranny burn up more gas?

i noticed my car is burning up gas fast. faster than my original stock one. or could there be something wrong elsewhere? i will replace my air filter asap. last time i replaced it was 20k miles ago. can't believe it's been that fast!

i've searched on google on "how to save gas" came up with the simple procedures and the bullshit driving 55 mph. how the hell we gonna drive 55 mph on the highway?

is there any other stuff you guys replace other than the ordinary?

jdm tranny is geared diffrently so your rpms run higher which makes you brun more fuel. a tune up cap rotor wires and plugs new fuel filter air filter oil change and tire pressure will help increase mpgs

fuel filter, cap, rotor, wires, and plugs, were replaced 3 months ago, except for the air filter.

yea i noticed the jdm tranny runs louder than my oe tranny. kind of regret not rebuilding the oe one. it eats up gas like a mug!
