Modded alero MPG's...

I have been thinking about getting the heads ported and intake manifolds but then I was wondering...how will mods effect my gas mileage? Its a everyday driver and I dont wanna kill it. Anyone wanna give me a idea about the mods you have and the gas mileage you are getting?

I get like friggin 32 MPG now (if you drive "normal" and not wide open it all the time)

the decrease in MPG is typically attributed to the desire to feel the power and push the throttle harder and not due to the power adder itself
