Boost is evil to your mpg. I think my redtop gets about 26 on the hwy but it is so damn hard to stay out of the boost for a full tank so it is hard for me to say. City is probably about 8mpg.

Haha, it all depends on how much you push the pedal down...

The numbers they're giving seem right to me.

standard bolt-ons/ 22-26mpg/ S13 blacktop

Ive got all the standard bolt ons and @13PSI. I average after every tank about 22mpg. I did however after a mostly highway trip get 26mpg. I dont drive like I stole my car but I am on occasion boost happy. But yea boost kills mpg.
