Re: gas milage on turbo LS??? or other b-series (donniEK)
ive been keeping an eye on mine and im getting about 22-24 miles a gallon with a gsr tranny which hurt cause I cruise at a higher RPM than an ls and most of my miles are on teh freeway to school and back.
Turbo timers are very fuel efficient either

Good point w/ the timer... especially w/ FMU setups.
I used to avg 19-22mpg on an LS at 10psi daily, LS tranny. But then again... I drive fast mostly, cruise at 80mph on avg and was a boost junkie.
I recall the now famous 'Night of 11mpg' Went to the races, boosted 12psi the whole night, surprised I didn't kill the car... started w/ a full tank, went home almost on empty. End result: 119miles drive, 10.3gal to fill= 11.55mpg !!!
