Turbo and mpg

Re: Turbo and mpg
under regular driving condition.
smaller turbo spool up easier = lower mpg
bigger turbo spool up later = better mpg
better tune = better mpg
easier driving = better mpg
i had a d16 with t3/04e and i net 40mpg the most.
when i drive the ---- out of it i net about 25mpg.
Once i raced with a friend for about 20 minutes on the freeway going 130 + and actually saw the gas gauge moved almost 1/4 of a tank

Re: Turbo and mpg
on my street tuned y8 with a .42/.48 i was averaging 30 mpg on every tank, and under normal driving too, if i really short shifted i could squeak out another 2 mpg. NA, best i could ever manage was 36. It's all in the tune and how you drive it
