Well obviously depending on the driving style. but not driving like a maniac, could i still get 380-400 per tank?

Default Yep

Because you're revving your engine so much to hear the "sucking" sound

Seriously though, I still get at least 400 a tank on warm weather blends.

Nope. Makes the car more efficient. You'll probably gain a few mpg.

Default If you drive to the same power levels as stock you should see + 3mpg with APR

Because we gain power by optimizing the efficiency most of our customers see any where form 2-4mpg better, some have seen as much as a 5-6mpg improvement. That is of course if your driving to the same power levels as stock.
