When you mix it with the right amount of horse pop, it produces astounding results.

You're essentially saying "get bigger injectors and your gas mileage will be higher". Thats bs.

:iagree:

Between this thread and the other thread I find that hip waders are required...

You have a supercharger correct? Off boost you don't have the economy of a turbo as you are still spinning the compressor. Still not buying that a turbo is more efficient than the same motor NA but a turbo is definitely more efficient than a supercharger if you stay out of it.

You guys didn't know that the Veyron gets 80mpg and 900 miles to the tank?

ya! but then i'm not making any positive boost. not sure if that matters much on the S/C app. still a little disappointed in my fuel mileage. 220 is what i'm making on highway and local driving combined out of a full tank lol

gas price in San Francisco is around $4.17 for 91 octane btw lol.

That's nothing, the Veyron Super Sport gets 100 mpg and gets almost 2k miles per tank :eek:

Also 900 miles / 80 mpg = 11.25 mpg which is more like 60% of a tank. :p

I didn't even notice till I was making up my own exaggerated numbers. 100 mpg and 1k miles didn't look right to me and only then did I realize something was wrong :icon17:
