Default Your MPG

I'm curious on those who have installed SC or TT

how much MPG are you getting as a daily driver?

and how much when you really push your car to the max.

thanks

I actually get a little better when I don't get in it about 20mpg. Now the first week I had the kit on I was only getting about 180 miles to the tank. That darn right foot just wanted to pedal to the ground all the time . So about 330-350 normal or 180 when I drive it really hard or 100miles if you go to the track a rag the **** out of it. It all depends on how you drive it.

Generally turbos will make better highway mileage due to burning the fuel more completely...I would guess a 2 or 3mpg gain for highway driving..

Funny... I was thinking about starting a thread like this just this morning. My car is averaging (city & hwy) about 19.5 mph with my Vortech kit.

This is a slight increase over where I was before (high 18s). And yes, I do get it in it occasionally. Probably could be just over 20 if I didn't play so often!
