Don't try to commute in a turbo Z.

That said, my highway fuel economy is as good or better than stock. That's assuming I stay out of boost.

If you are worried about your MPG, YOU should not go FI. Maybe sell your Z and get a Versa or a Sentra. Seriously.

If your not in boost you will get the similar milage as you did before you went FI however in boost will be much worse.

So who cares about milage then. Not one person can tell you, beacause we all have different driving habbits. Get it done and see how it goes. At first you will do ok for fuel consumption, and once you get comfortable with the power the car has, you will be on it more and more. This will result in more frequent trips to the gas station, it's that simple.

So the thread was pointless then


Call GTM and ask them if your buying there kit, I would think they do fuel economy testing when developing the TT kits.
