How is the Gas mileage any one? its poor as it is, how bad is it with Supercharged/Turbo ?

 

I am in the process of buying Randys_G, some of you might know it ... Vortech S/C at 6psi and he averages around 19 - 23. About the same if not better than what I get on my current stock G.

 

Hey Doc, from what he told me he is only pushing 6psi. Before he went with the Vortech he had already installed a true dual exhaust with high-flow cats. The Vortech system is designed to boost a stock G setup which means that the backpressure from the stock exhaust is taken into account.

I think the 366+ hp to the wheels will do me just fine after 2 years in my stock G. But then again, you never know

 

BeerViper do you mean that if i installed Fujitsubo Exhaust with Y pipe the Vortech will perform well on it since its same settings as stock (not dual) ?

 

^ Yup

 

^^What he said.

Randys_G is using the stock 3.33 pully which is rated at 8psi. With the free flowing exhaust it is technically losing 2 psi although it is still putting down 366 rwhp and 300 rwtq. Essentially what it means is that you're still acheiving the same power output with a safer setup (less boost).

This is the way I understand it at least I'm sure I will keep learning a lot more once I take delivery of Randy's G

 

I get 21.2 miles per gallon on the Vortech and I boost between 9.5 -10psi on the 3.12 pulley, I also have the fuji exhaust and y pipe and I also put down 420awhp.

I lost about 1.3 miles per gallon after the install.
