Cruise at a preset speed is really the only way to accurately measure MPG anyhow, preferably always on the same stretch of road...
However, on or highest boosting highest speed, longest Saab club Fun-run, I still pulled in a nice 26 MPG. That's with plenty of 20 psi boosting and triple digit speeds, and two mountain passes, 5400 feet and 3300 feet.
On my daily commute, which is a lot of stop and go, I generally average about 26-27 MPG.
Gotta love the Jacobs ignition.. :)
