Default gettin a stang soon

hey im new to this site, i have a couple friends with mustang gt's. i have a dodge ram gettin about 11 miles to the gallon in the city. This summer im getting a mustang gt, probably around an 02 or 03. Ill end up doing the typical exhaust, headers, air intake, chip, and gears right off the bat what kind of miles per gallon can i be expecting because im getting different answers from all of my friends, i would appreciate all the feed back because im new to performance mustangs, thanks

Paul

depends on your driving habits but with 4.10s most likely better city and a lil worse on the highway than stock

prob 20-23ish overall

Your other parts will help w/ mileage so you'll either be at the same or slightly worse. You'll definately do better than 11 mpg though.
