First, congrats on the wicked-quick mosheen! And the MPG claim is important for the thread, too. Clarification: when you say it's capable of these numbers, as far as the MPG numbers go are you referencing an observed cruising MPG under perhaps ideal freeway conditions or a measured tank average? One of the cool things pgfpro accomplished (I think with a former 3-stage vtec civic and not his current talon) was a high cruising MPG under light load, while also getting lots more power in other situations. That's you? Or is 80 mpg a tank average?

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
