Default Turbo and gas mpg ?

For those of you that have the turbo setup. How much did your mpg change from stock while running your turbo ?

I get better highway mileage (~31mpg) and approximately the same city mileage depending on how I drive (18-24mpg).

I get better mileage in the city, and amazing highway. I attribute this to the car making more power in the midrange, thus not needing to use the throttle as much.

hey spec ops, how did you manage to get a high mpg. Does having a wideband connected to the aem ems and running a close loop help that a bit. With my set up with only making 320whp i may be averaging 24-25 highway and and about 19 or so city. My afr at wot is 11.02 and seems to be under 14 anything above 3000rpm.

I have O2 sensor feedback enabled on my EMS and have it set to ~13.8 when under 5k rpms and 0psi (aka only works in vacuum and under 5k rpms).

Other then that, its just my overall tune I guess

pretty much, but that all only affects gas mileage while in boost. Out of boost its the tune since the engine should not be using any more fuel then stock.
