Okay kiddies: what kind of milage are you getting out of your Hiboost/Mental Addiction/Whatever setup.

Me: I consistantly get about 23 mpg, mostly highway driving at 75-80 mph with a little bit of around-town driving.

Most recent:
249.7 mi on 10.67 gal of 93 octane = 23.4 mpg

So, what about you? Aftermarket turbo'd MP3's and Proteges can chime in too. :D
 
200 miles per tank. damn. thats about 15.8mpg. I think my dad get better gas mileage in his Titan

wonder how bazokajoe is doing with his boosted P5 now.......
you guys must be driving your cars harder than the average person to get those numbers?

they seem to be low.
 
MAM Street sleeper, and MPI
I filled up last night, and i went 345 miles on 12.6 gallons. So 27.3 MPG
This is with my setup still running extremely rich under boost.
 
i consistently get 25mpg (mixed city/highway) and on all highway road trips i still can get 400+miles on a tanks which i believe was around 32mpg. (i drive from Pa to VT often)

i haven't actually taken down the mileage (i'll do it next time i fill up) i had a gas leak that i just solved two weeks ago...anyway, guessing i'd say 20-23???
 
if you stay out of boost you're getting the best of course....stock i never got more than 27 or so city/highway
 
yall need to look into megasquirt! i get 30mpg consistently, running 13.5:1 AFR cruising(yes I know i need to lean out some.) hardeeharhar
 
27-28 highway... 20ish city. :) I ran a little rich when I did that... I'll find out what my new leans maps do tomorrow... but they already bumped my city driving to 23 mpg. Yay Microtech!;)
