453 miles to the tank? Is this normal?

Exactly. I put 87 in my car by accident once and it felt like such a dog, I didn't even get on it until I was able to get more good gas in it.
The previous owner of my car dyno'd it on 87 octane since that's all he used and it made a measly 152 whp stock. Black_SC's car by comparison doesn't seem to run 100% and put down I believe 178 whp with just exhaust.

i got 413 mile on one tank and then the gas light came on. But that was almost all highway at 80mph and the a/c on. i bet i could of got 450 out of it. But i just got it on friday morning so i am still getting used to it. That v8 has a little pull to it. Waxed a "riced out" honda's *** on the trip....hehe

I was so low on gas last fill-up, my car started doing the whole sputtering/chug-chug-chug at the end, about to run out of of gas in the middle of turning left into the Kroger gas station. Luckily, I made it. Of course, since my gas tank was so low, it took me $45 to fill-up , up from my regular $40-42 per fill-up.
I need to seriously get some kind of cheap 3- or 4-cyl POS. Hybrids are looking very good to me right now and I see some kind of economical car in my future (as a second car, of course). It's just too bad hybrids are still somewhat expensive.

My 5speed SC gets around 360 miles everytime before the light comes on and it usually takes 15 gallons to fill up. Do the math, 360/15 equals 24mpg. Sometimes I get a liitle less; around 23.
