What kind of MPG are you boosted guys seeing?
I was just sitting here and started wondering what kind of MPG everyone's boosted cars are getting. Im very familiar with boosted cars but never thought to check my MPG. Plus I sold the car after getting her up and running. I know staying out of boost helps before someone says that LOL. Im looking for people running 1000CC injectors too. Thanks

2.0L vtec, 880cc with a gsr trans. I see upper 20s around town and a little over 30 on the highway at 65 to 70mph. I don't rip on the car all that often but when u do the needle literally moves right in front of you.
I see you had a vitara setup. My vitara setup got crap mpg right about 20. With the low compression I found myself driving around at like less than 10 vacuum if not into boost a few psi to keep the car moving.

I am hoping to keep mid 20's to 30mpg when I do my turbo. Garrett 57 trim .63 AR, ID 1000CC injectors, 91 pump gas. Going for 280-300WHP on stock LS Vtec with stock head bolts and ARP rod bolts.

my mileage is all over the place as the car is not my DD so fuel consumption isn't a huge issue.
480whp, ID1000s. ls/vtec. last tank i got 22mpg, the previous tank 27. i suspect i can get over 30 if i stay out of boost, but i am happy with the mileage considering i can't keep my foot out of it.

This is what I was looking for. I previously had a boosted D16y8 setup tuned by Tony at T1 and wanted to know if I eneded putting my setup back in my civic if I would be dropping horribly.
Keep the numbers coming, this is good info. Thanks everyone

Drive it to the track, beat the **** out of it, drive it home, see anywhere from 20-25mpg on E85(E70). When I drive it, I usually am enjoying it, so the mileage could go up, but not with me behind the wheel.
