guess that might depend on if ya boost or not while turbo'd.. as far as i know you should use about the same amount n/t its when ya push da pedal to da metal.. emoji ive heard that you can accually get better gas milage while turbo'd too if tuned right.. but sorry dont really have any numbers since for one i aint turbo'd... just been around a few turbo'd freaks emoji

I just checked and I got 26 mpg over the past 3000 miles (mixed city/highway). Thats with poorly tuned 440's. Same as it was before the turbo.

I get 300 to a tank. It depends on how you drive. I'm running really rich right now so with a SAFC imagine how much gas you save, and look at the HP gain too! ^_^

I get about 300 on a tank to. I'll be ok. Thanks for the info. I'm hoping to introduce my car to boost by next year.
