Usually low to mid 30's mostly highway. Lowest I got was 28, the first tank of gas after I installed the turbo - a lot of testing it out 
If you don't go too big on the turbo, its like it's only there when you need it.
As alot of my friends said would be the case after getting a WRX, I have more fun driving my WRX then my delsol. Its been perfect weather the past week or 2 in Western washington, the delsol has only made 2 trips out, one to a import meet, the second on a little joy ride with my dad. After a while I got tired of the sun put the roof back in and most of the time driving the delsol, I kept thinking I would rather be driving my WRX.
I plan on making one last video for my delsol and then selling it as Its the time of year people will want a delsol or convertible. Before it goes it gets a new header and test pipe to fix the old leaky ones that my old drive way didn't like.
I still have my sedan in bone stock condition i can drive if i need the mpg's, just have to put it back on the insurance. The delsol's been a very fun car when i have had it. However my WRX is more fun to drive, handles 90% as good bone stock with just sticky tires, and put its power down way way better, This is important in Western Washington when its Rains 9months out of the year. Also since its a wagon I can seat 4 when I want to, and put alot of luggage or parts in the car. It also is much more comfortable then my delsol while having 90+% of the sportiness, Maybe I am just getting old but The delsol is very rarely getting touched so I plan on letting someone else enjoy her.
