[QUOTE="Fusion_FREAK, post: 5000641, member: 580664"] I have a '97 Civic, and get about 30 city and I got 37 on the highway, but I drove it nice and didn't get it above 4k rpm. I'm seeing about 350 miles per tank, which comes to 29.x mpg, also driving like a dickhead. My car sees redline everyday, also. Change your fuel filter, plugs (I'm using NGK Iridiums), don't need to change your plug wires unless they're cracked or dry rotted, change the oil, (I use full synthetic, Royal Purple, $7/quart) you don't need to use it, but I do it for mine, because I drive it really hard, and change it now at about 5k miles. Air filter would be a good thing to change, get a K&N hi-flow drop in replacement, distributor cap and rotor, keep your tires up to spec for the pressure, and that's all I can think of right now. I also had another suggestion, but I lost my train of thought, so I'll post back up when I remember. [/QUOTE]
