Now, a part of the reason I joined this community is to get help in getting more MPG's out of this thing. I know that with lean burn I should really be getting more than 38.081 average MPG so I'm looking for help in squeezing at least 40 out of this sucker.
Those fees really add up! Ouch!

Is your car originally from California? I remember reading that the 6th gen Civics from California may not actually have lean burn due to emissions reasons (Lean burn has high NOx emissions which is why it's not on any new cars). My 7th gen is from California and does.
