Interesting. I get about 25 mpg average with the Edelbrock, 30+ if I try real hard.

damn I wish I get mileage like you. I'm barely scraping by at 21 mpg and I'm rarely in boost.

Easy to avoid.
Ask questions that show at least a minimal attempt at finding the answer before asking. "What is the best turbo for 300HP that won't hurt my car" is not a great question and is just sort of lazy. Be accurate as possible with any description of a problem or question. For example if something happened once don't make it sound like a daily event. The answers you get are going to be based on the initial statement and if it is poorly done then so will they. As the old saying says. Garbage in = garbage out. Above all remember that this is a community and as such there are many different opinions on a subject. Just because somebody gives an opinion that is not what you want to hear does not mean they are being rude, insulting or otherwise demeaning. Saying "I want your thoughts" and then getting all pissy because people gave them is what sets off many arguments. In this particular case people gave their opinions but since they were not exactly what the OP wanted he went on a total personal attack against almost everybody that had replied. If you just want support for what you have already decided then don't ask for opinions. If you ask a question and get several different answers just pick the one you like best and go with it. There is no need to run down the people that gave the answers you didn't go with. Once again how people respond to posts they don't like can determine how things progress. Finally since this is all in print people can not tell tone or body language so tend to read things in their own state of mind. This means they take perfectly innocent statements or themes and turn them angry. Many of use write to the point and that can be blunt but that does not mean for one second we are in anyway angry, trying to be insulting or any other way attempting to be superior it is just simply how we write. I get accused of all these way more often than is reasonable but am not willing to throw in LOLs and smiley faces to try to express my actual state of mind. Hell, I bet half the people out there just read all of this in an angry tone and are getting madder and madder because of it.

I also easily get 29 mpg with both normal commute and highway driving. Last edited by mrg666; 02-21-2018 at 12:31 PM. Reason: added a related reply |

I'm hitting 260whp and 206wtq on 92 octane @ 20.4mpg atm. Idk what it'll be with full exhaust and a higher boost pulley, but I'll gladly trade 2mpg for ~310whp and ~240wtq if I can stick to the safe side of configurations. Although id be sketch about running a higher boost pulley without a quality tune and stock injectors although some people have had success on 92/93 octane - 12psi pulleys with the stock injectors.

I am running header and e85 so I'm close to the limit in na land. I'm not sure I would ever go fi just from a good money into bad money perspective but if I did I would have to accept the risk of mechanical failure and the risk of dumping more money into it once I got used to the new power level and the inevitable desire for more. Damn, a 2.3 litre over square motor would be nice lol.

Personally I have a FullBlown stage one kit and it felt good until my rod bent but I’d say get the sbd kit, their Facebook page is really helpful if you have a problem and they stand by their product. Now I’m not saying full blown doesn’t it’s a great kit but the sbd is cheaper and Wilkins hit the goals you want.
I originally had just intake, then e85 with full exhaust and car woke up. Try that before you go boost. Or don’t doesn’t really matter but just my opinion |
