Quick little update:

After installing the WeaponR header and giving it at least 100 miles for the ecu to relearn a bit, I got a full tank of gas. Today, after a week of driving with noticeable improvements in both driveability and mpg (definitely seeing 15+ mpg readings more often than I used to at the same gears and rpms before changing the header). I filled up 8.231 gallons at the Costco pump I normally get my gas after 254.1 miles - had to fill up even though the gas light hadn't turned on because I need gas to drive to school and back tomorrow morning. This comes out to ~30.87 MPG for the tank, going 50/50 city and highway, while doing a few (~5) redline jackrabbit starts for fun and to get onto the highway - not to mention that I've been driving a bit faster to get to school at 70-75 mph cruise control. I've never gotten a tank mpg this high before swapping out the header save for the 85% highway trip to San Diego and back that gave me a tank mpg of 32. By the way, when I was running on the oem header and getting 24-26 mpg, I NEVER even once took the car past 5k rpm. Now I'm having more fun with the car's newfound perkiness and still getting significantly better fuel economy while I'm at it!

I'll have to see if I can continue this kind of mpg on this next tank of gas. It will be the same route, same amount of traffic and the same amount of throttle/speed/rpms that I've been using for the past 6+ months. If this header can really turn around my mpg from 24-26 to 28-30+, despite the occasional fun high throttle, redlining starts and 75 mph freeway drives - my hat is off to you WeaponR. I'll try and update after I see how my mpg fares this week.
