recirculate that bish!

maybe your BOV is leaking. That will cause a rich condition.

Check your O2 sensor and clean it or replace if necessary. Unplug my O2 sensor and I get half the mpg.

Sometimes mine will drop down to around 15-18mpg. All I do is pull my plugs and clean them with carb cleaner. I do the same with the oxygen sensor too. Then I clean my blitz filter and maf also and my mpg will jump back up to around 22-25.
