For reference, my turbo’d gen 1 clocks about 10l/100km (approx 23.5mpg) on average throughout the year including “real” winters ( read many feet of snow :-) ) mostly short distances and hilly provincial roads, with the odd longer highway trip. If I drive slower on highways I can get down to about 7.8l/100km on a given trip. (Approx 30mpg). Adding the turbo actually slightly (I’d say about 10%) improved my consumption relative to stock way back when driving “normally”… Now During HPDEs, I’m more around 36l/100km (6.5mpg)…! So it really depends how you drive it…
