Re: (Turbo E 604)
Well i've only been boosting for 3 days, but damn, gas isn't going as far as it used to LOL...
But I've got my maps tuned to where if I stay out of boost, fuel economy is the same as stock, but once your boosting, you can say good bye to MPG
If you want, once my uberdata map is done, I can send it to you, or burn you a chip with it, It will be fully tuned part and WOT, b18c with skunk2 intake manifold, 64mm tb, SC34 turbo and DSM 450cc injectors

If I stay out of boost, I can get 30 mpg on high way driving. 310 miles per tank doesn't tell me much, because most eg fuel readings from teh dashboard are off a bit and since I don't have a fuel light I dunno when I absolutely need to fill up. for instance I know I need to fill up about 8 Gal when I hit about 230-40 miles on the odometer.
Does anybody have a crome/uberdata tuned map for the very common stock block GSR with 45occ's and a Drag III kit?

Re: Fuel economy in your Boosted B18C (toolowsol)
what's the difference between a stock motor wiht Drag kit map vs your custom kit map? Would that be safe on my car since we run slightly different setups? I appreciate the help but I want to know if it's safe or not. Thanks

Only accurate way to measure gas mileage is to fill it up, reset trip odo or record odo number, drive for however long you want to, then fill it up to the brim again. Record the KM's and how much gas you put in and voilla, gas mileage. When you think you're running on empty there could still be a litre or two of gas left in the tank, so that isn't exactly accurate.
