21-23mpg? Hmmm, that's weird, and you don't have a turbo on there? When I use the turbo alot I do get around that too, ie. I was coming home from this retreat center late at night and would test the boost by passing cars when the passing lane came up and my speeds would be around 85+mph, and with that my mpg went down in the 21-22 mpg. I have played with my Apexi SFC-2 and lowered all the settings to -40% to trick the ECU into not using as much fuel, hopefully this will save me some mpgs and reduce the carbon particles coming out of my tailpipe...and the fuel smell too!
p.s. you've seen the picture of the engine bay before? When was this? And I guess I don't know what you meant by the owner talking alot of smack...was he putting everyone down or something? One thing for sure, the custom turbo setup doesn't really look that professional, but like I mentioned before, it works and it does surprise alot of people who think the car is slow plus it is fun to drive!
