In town, ~19MPG.  Going from Tuscaloosa to Orange Beach AL (~200m) the 
monitor shows 26 to 28 mpg.  Actual hand-calculated values are around 
26mpg.

Lexus/500 mod, Audi/porsch bov, SP61GT, Spearco intercooler.  Mod were 
done kinda backwards but when I started I had to replace my turbo, then 
get the valve stems worked to stop blowing smoke.  I figured that I should 
go ahead and change out the injectors while they were accessible.  The 
back part of the engine (exhaust) is next.
