Mileage is good, especially considering the whole picture. The Radix will not cause a drop in mpg, from my experience.

I lost gas mileage, my bank account, almost my marriage, and my sanity. Luckily though, my sanity was firmly placed and so I kept speeding money on it. I am the same place as trever1t, except his 5.3 thinks it is a 6.2L.

WOW DOMLS2! I don't recall putting you on the FTL. What kind of times where you running with those shots? WHere you doing an 80 shot then upgraded to a 100shot? or 2 staged it?

Gas mileage will go down when you are getting into the throttle all the time. It takes fuel to make power, period. However, these guys are talking about normal driving conditions. IMO the fun you will have with the supercharger will far out weigh any decreases in mpg's.
