Bad gas milage
Right after a mod like this, you tend to be on a "power" high and you're punching it at every opportunity. Once this initial urge to "giver 'er" wear off a bit, you should start to see better fuel economy (that is, if you really even care about that sort of thing). Stay off the boost and the car should behave almost like it did before.

but it should taper down to 3-5 mpg less than stock....
When my car was NA and otherwise stock, I was getting 39.9 miles to the Canadian gallon. Now, with the Vortech and 4.44 gears, on the same stretch of highway (300 miles long), I can only get 34.9. I can't say how much the gears come into play to reduce the fuel economy as they both went on before I did another highway trip.
