Default MPG ???

Im a week away from finally completing my setup and with the ever rising price of gas i find myself asking myself why am i doing this... But i know the sacrifice.. More power= More gas.... so the inevitable must happen.. My gas milege will definatly suck.

Now my question to you people is what setup are you running (motor,Turbo,Fuel Managment) and what is you MPG

PS 91 octane gas is $2.17 p/g and rising

Holy ----, $2.17 for premium. That's insane, where do you live? I'm in NJ and it's about $1.70-1.80, and that's 93 octane.

if youre using an fmu, then you should get the same amount of mpg, that is if you can keep your foot out of it...

Old D16 turbo using a rising rate got as low as 18-24 with a promiscuous right foot. 30-33 when i had my skirt on, and a best of 37-38 on freeway only. (no boosting)
