I have room to talk, this morning i was turning 4600 rpms in OD, that should calculate somewhere between 130-140 mph. There goes the gas mileage.

 

i try to do that but my trucks so slow the end if still ahead of me.

 

one word: BOOST

 

I am getting about 11.7 mpg now on average and I get about 13.3 in the summer. I can get 16.6 on the highway and 9 to 11 when I tow a 5000 Lb trailer.

 

yeah, before i get that i need a trans. it all leads to $$$$ and $$$$. i dont know how everyone affords it.

 

14.3~14.8 in town, no highway mileage yet with new tune

was 10.8~11.3 in town stock

...and MUCH faster, 1.2 seconds 1/4m faster !!!


Wester's, boyyyyyyy.......................

 

The best my VHO will do is 15.2mpg on average.

Stock I was averaging 13.2 95% city driving.

Now with the Turbo I seem to be in the mid 14mpg range. In fact, I reset it, drove for a couple of days, went down the 1/4 mile 3 times, hammered it a few more on the way home and checked when I got home. It was at 13.0!

 

I get around 13.5 mixed city/highway. My mods are nelson tune, UPD, TB bypass, Trailblazer stall, and shift kit.

 

I have been tracking mine over the last 5 tanks and I am averaging 16.9 mpg. Most of it is highway miles and includes a trip to the track, so I can't complain.
