I get about 21 mpg in city driving, about 28 on the highway.

As for the GReddy turbo, I am not convinced that is the best Forced Air Induction for this engine. I have heard some people have had some issues with the fuel management system and are not real happy. I am not up on the techical issues, but just read a few posts.

It is advertised as "bolt on" power, but personally, do not believe there is such a thing as "bolt on" Force Induction. I plan on doing forced induction the right way and upgrade any "weak links" in the motor before I slap on a turbo charger. I would also like to see a K-Pro system from Hondata before turboing as well.
