I finally decided to manually calculate this. I'm 100% city driving with the exact setup you described. So far I've used about 3/4 of a tank and I'm at 170 something miles. I'll let you know the final result in a few days.

It should be the button you press for mpg's, get it to the temp on farieheight and press and hold till it turns to celsius. Then your mpg automatically changes to kilometers.

I'm getting 15-16 city and 16-17 highway now that I've got the gears. Before I was getting 13-14.5 no matter what I drove, sometimes 12.5. I do have an airaid and a flowmaster, dunno if that helps or what. Also these are my new calculations as of today.

Maybe I need a new air filter. lol. you have the slushbox too don't you? I know you do. Did the AEV help any on MPG? I know some people say the shift points improve.
