yes, boost will increase your mpg as long as you don't go WOT stoplight to stoplight

Can you explain how? coz even at part-throttle as long as you hit positive boost isn't that you have your own Fuel Table that you follow? So at 5PSI even at part-throttle your A/F will be a little richer and your injector is also bigger hence will push more fuel. I'm not debating but I'm confuse how you will save gas on Boost where I have read number of books and all say Gas consumption will increase if you are boosting.

Ok well I get the MPG deal now. Thanks guys. My moms jeep gets 14mpg so it will do better than that or the same. Which is not a problem, $40 a week and a half, plus I found gas for $2.45/gallon.

My next question(Since some laughed when I said greddy) is what TT kit make do you suggest?
Thanks!

I get something like 17mpg city, but when I'm on the highway and always stay in vac, most i've gotten is 24. Thats a like really really really granny driving. I think in theory you are supposed to get better mileage or something... oh well my navi says I get 43 and that I have 500+ miles before empty lol

i calculate it on every fill. no squeezing the pump. just miles traveled divided by the gallon filled.

I do the same thing...I get made fun of. I get 19-21mpg, no matter if I shift at 2k or 6k.

Not sure if you base the price on premium 91+ octane. With Turbo you dont want to use regular fuel
