What "mode" gives you best gas mileage?

Not entirely sure?!
Having dyno'd the car alongside a couple of stock ISF's, and another modified one, my car was down on power, and had a nasty spike in my AFR readings.
I've since swapped it out for a K&N panel filter, and HPS intake pipe.
Same dyno showed an improvement in every respect.
Just my experience/2p worth.

i mean maybe i am hammering it more than i think i am. i am giving alot of my friends rides. but my commute 5 days a week i drive it like a baby. i just know it would take alot of driving without hammering it to get my dash to read 20 mpg. my tank avg is 16 right now. 240miles to empty when topped off.

My regular commute is also ~60 round trip with a mix of city/highway. That said I avg about 16-18 depending on how I choose to drive that week. 18 if I'm in 'normal mode' and driving "conservatively" with the occasional spirited burst - bc how can you not in these cars. 15-16 if I'm mostly in normal mode with the occasional 'sport mode' excursions. I think the worst I've averaged in just over a year of ownership was 14 when I spent the better part of the tank in sport and driving like I stole it Either way fill-ups every 3-4 days is about normal I think.

Sport Mode for me 23 mpg. Car, or the engine works less harder specially when you're going up on a hill as an example.
My average from SD to SF.... 21-22 per gallon. 23-24 per tank. If I can remember correctly.

I checked mine yesterday and it said 17-18 for both average and tank average. That's with takeda intake, joe-z exhaust, ppe headers and pretty much 100% city driving. Not bad if you ask me.
Like I said, I never actually look at the "current mpg" since I'm sure it would kill any enjoyment I may be having. I'm also not sure how accurate the average and tank average numbers are. The best method would be to set a trip odometer when filling up, check the miles at next fill up, and calculate based on how much gas you put in. I've never looked into this with the ISF, but my experience with other cars was the the MPG numbers displayed weren't accurate.
