15-20 is about what you can expect depending on motor condition, road, grade, etc.

15 or 16 was all I could get with an automatic. With the manual, I can get almost 20 if the conditions are just right.

Edit: That's as measured by the MAP sensor and viewed with a scangauge.

Never knew what mine got stock due to up pipes leaking, but 15-17 is normal. As Eric Joseph and said, if everything is just right with the truck, you ate your wheaties, and got a little road rage going on, im sure it could get that 20 every now and then!
