It takes fuel to make power.

I used to get about 380 miles to a tank. Since turboing I went to about 300 miles per tank. It sucks but thats the price you pay for speed. I would rather go fast and guzzle gas then go slow and get great gas milage.

my city mileage sucks, but thats cuz i dont drive like a grandma emoji

my highway mileage hasnt suffered much since boost tho, maybe 2-4mpg.

stay out of boost and gas mileage wont suffer, but like dino said, takes fuel to make power
