18.4 mpg after performance mods...how can I make it better?

I was running in the 23-25 mpg range before I aded the headers, catback, UDP & grounding kit. Typical round town stuff with an occassional 70-80 mile jaunt on the highway during a total of 250 miles between fills. I only use 91+ octane.

I will admit that since I have added the mods I enjoy the sweet sound of my exhaust and the incredible performance improvements MUCH MUCH more..... So, I'm certain that some of the drop in gas mileage has been the result of my "increased love" for my max.

Now that I have a few hundred miles on my new mods, I figured it was time to check mileage again.

Can I tune my max with something like an SAFCII to get better mileage?

In case anyone is curious, here's a link to a large gas mileage thread.

Thanks,
