I have a '93 LS with an Injen Intake and the car does 11 MPG, that's horrible. I guess it's because I have a heavy foot and like to step on it alot and the intake doesn't help much either

Very likely it's the intake.

$2.20 for premium 93 Octane is not cheap, cost me about $45 to fill up the tank. I remember when I first got my car with $24 the tank was full.

I'm pretty sure it is the intake, but I like the way it sounds.
