If we are talkin mileage- even when I had the 42lb injectors and charger, I was still getting mid 20's on the highway, at that was with the 3.73's. The main thing is your tune. Typically the more efficient your motor is, the better mpg you are going to get.
And Caleb, I will be honest, I don't know anyone personally who has a BRAND NEW Tib, but all of the people I do know that have Hyundai's, they were all rattle-box POS's getting fixed all the time.
So maybe Hyundai has fixed their cars, but until I know someone who has an awesome experiance with one, I will defend my standpoint. I am more than willing to accept that they might make a good vehicle now, I'm just waiting for someone to prove it to me thats all...

And the tune is from Texas-speed.

I think Id belive more that you have a leak in your gas tank than you getting 9-11 mpg... Thats insanely ****** for a v6. Thats like 150 miles on a tank.
