I got a 95 GT with Eddy Performer Intake, Ecam, full exhaust, and pullies.
Highway driving I get 250+, street driving, I'm lucky if I get 200

My 95 vert, with shorties, o/r x and no tailpipes(too lazy to install) and a cold air intake, I barely get 200 with some freeway, otherwise I get about 180-170miles street. Thats with a freaking 15 gallon tank that takes 34 bucks to fill up with premium..im suffering hardcore. ohhh and I also have exhaust leaks and my engine coolant temperature sensor is messed up.

Hmmm, not a GT, but on my Cobra I average about 15 in the city, 20 on the highway using 91 octane.
FT (16g)= 240+/- in the city
FT (16g)= 300+/- highway
Car is mainly stock except for 70TB,CAI, & all exhaust. But i do usually have my plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and fuel filter changed every 25-35K miles. Regardless, everyone's MPG will be different since some ppl use A/C a lot more, drive a lot more heavy footed, etc.

I think after driving home tonight i know something is wrong with it. It acted like it lost power for a second so i jumped on it and it pulled nicely but i definitely felt a power loss. Also when i have it in maybe 2nd gear or first gear and i lightly let off on the gas the car starts jerking sometimes like its stalling but it shouldn't cause the rpms are usually at 1500rpm when it does it.
I need to do an oil change it just hit 3K miles but i don't think thats the problem. Theres something else but i don't know what. I am going to run the codes this weekend and check over the engine. I KNOW something is wrong. I can sense it.
All i have is a K&N, some Underdrive pulleys and a BBK fuel regulator.

I get an average of 265-280 miles per full tank, if I drive it to the last drop.
Mods are stock 5.0 heads, stock cobra intake, 76mm MAF, 65mm TB,MSD wires and coil, MAC headers, 2-cat H-pipe, dynomax exahaust and some exhaust leaks, 3.73's and AODE tranny. The engine has a bad #5 ring and runs hot but never boils over. My gas miles are mostly highway.

Is your car an auto or 5-speed?
Also, make sure your fuel pressure isn't too hight.

when you drive it, what gear do you cruise in?
driving with the tach at 3k+ will certanly drain the gas quicker.

thats cuz with a 5.0 you feel the need to speed, and a 4.6 is a grocery getter.... KIDDING.
I honestly thought they were about the same
