335's typically do better.... due to being Turbo (yes turbos are for EFFICIENCY; everyone just tends to use the efficiency to get more power instead), and direct injected.

I do agree on the intake manifold though

Yours is a better way of looking at fuel efficiency in my mind.

MPG is simply
(miles driven)/(gallons of fuel used)
so
100 miles driven using 4 gallons of fuel would be
100/4 or 25 miles per gallon.
