Lightbulb A G35 with outstanding fuel economy?!

I know that our cars are generally a bit piggy when it comes to the beloved go go juice but I think I've finally found a solution to the problem:

Since I've had the twin turbo setup in mine (march), I haven't spent a nickel on gas!!!


(sorry. Just sayin)

Going down to see It this weekend- should be running but might not get it? It'll be close. Otherwise next set off for sure.

And yes it really IS like driving it 3 weeks per year

LOL

But in all seriousness a properly tuned turbo setup will get decent gas mileage when you're not in boost... but once those snails spool up its like the floodgates of your wallet are opening up rocketing you forward
