My 03 Cobra with a supercharged V8 making 450hp to the wheels gets that mileage! The best route they could go would be to put in a motor similar to the Cobalt SS's LNF turbo engine.

lol how can you trash the fc20 since it was the most powerful NA engine until Ferrari released the 458 Italia just THIS year so from 1999 until 2010 theis engine was the best NA engine in the world
Yes it doesn't get as good MPG as the other 4s but how can you even compare a high output highly developed and tuned 4 to a regular eco box 4.
I have a hard time believing in the 24mpg since my friends dad owns a Shebly GT500 and those things deff don't get good MPG. I do know the Vettes get in the 20s tho.
@OP
The S2k makes it power due to the stroke and compression but because of how it was design it doesnt take well to boost without being overhauled 1st
