I'm cheating by resetting the trip computer once I am on the highway. I got 30 MPG by staying around 75 MPH and staying in my lane with minimal passing (did this just for testing, no traffic, A/C on, no ECO PRO). I don't care much about MPG so I don't drive like this regularly. I'm guessing 65 or 55 MPH would yield the EPA number. I drove PCH from LA to OC yesterday and got 18 MPG city. I'm getting about 24 MPG combined with my normal driving habits (I have BMS Stage 1 tune).
Early on my hand calculation and the computer were pretty far off. I've found the computer to be much more accurate as the car has broken in.
