Tune-ups this good for mileage?

I just got my 60K done on my 01 986. I went from getting 300 miles for a full tank to 360 both from topped off to gas light coming on! I welcome the extra 60 miles but I can't imagine the 60K contributing this much. My driving style has not changed, still drive like an a$$. Maybe the wind was blowing behind me the whole time. Hehe...

i assme you got new plugs too. when plugs are new you would get that extra 60 miles but mpg will fizzle off slightly after the first tank of gas. i would guess you may get 340 miles for a full tank later.

I got these things done:

1. Spark Plugs
2. Air Filter
3. Oil Filter
4. Oil
5. Cleaned out air ducts
6. New Serpentine belt
7. Cabin Filter
8. Flush Coolant
9. Flush brake fluid
10. Cabin Filter

I guess it was the new cabin filter that did it! Haha!! In any case, I'm lovin the better mileage!

How in the heck did you get 360miles out of one gas tank in the Boxster?!?!?!

There is no way you were driving like an a$$ and if you were then I defenitely drive like a jack a$$

I laughed at that I had no clue what it meant. Care to break it down for me?
