Surprisingly subaru has gotten worse instead of better. I've seen threads on a subaru forum where people are getting high teens to low 20s in their 2019 outback.
I'm hoping that the mods I've listed will help push the car to over 30 mpg consistently.

I don’t see what’s so bad about straight piping the intake? It just adds some noise, maybe freeing up a couple HP in the process... they say you lose mileage with a dirty air filter and I went the other way, de-restricting the entire intake and exhaust system with no losses so far that I can tell...
And look at how much bigger Subarus have gotten in the past decade or two... an Outback used to be a Legacy with a 2” lift, and now it’s much much taller...
