I get about 12.5 on the road right now (range 11-13.5).

before I went and got all tall and undergeared I was a sneeze better
than that at times, up to 15 or so at times. Overall my average
stock milage was 13.3 (on 36000 miles) and since the SAS have been
11.1 (on 30000 miles). Much higher percentage of offreading in the
post-SAS numbers and I don't feel like massaging out all those 6-8
mpg tanks flagged as "offroading".

I have a gear swap to get back to. 5.38s are fully done in the rear
now, front is ready for setup and it should be ready for a test drive
by the end of the day, I'm hoping. it's been slower going than I'd
hoped for, I'm probably 20-25 hours into it by now and I was figuring
15-20 for the whole thing.
