As mentioned getting the high octane stuff. This might give you better mpg due to the fact that the high octane stuff, in a lot of places is 100% gas instead of 90% gas. Like the 87 octane stuff is. Ethanol has less energy in it compare to gas.

But its for clean air even though you have to burn more to go the same distance.

Get a k&n cai! After a 100 miles or so your computer will make adjustments and you won't run lean.
