How much gas

[solekeeper]

Have you guys lost due to FC? Whether it be turbo or SC?

I was curious.. as to which burns more gas

Did you mean FI?

I think that would vary based on the set up and how hard you drive it.

ive heard the Stillen SC is more efficient and uses less gas when driving conservatively but that all goes away when you start having fun

Well... when I HAD the charger on, I was getting 26-28 mpg highway when cruising, and then when I'm hard on it I get 12-14 mpg.

It's all about how you use it, and how lead-footed you are. It can easily add to your fuel economy if you drive very lightly, but chances are you didn't put FI on to drive more conservatively.

Most people I know that have gone FI actually get better gas mileage. The car doesn't have to work as hard to drive normally. However if you wanna step on it more to feel it all the time, then you'll be using more gas obviously Drive on the streets, save the racing for the track!

My gage shows an average of 24 MPG. But I've calculated it to be about 14MPG.

Ever since the Walbro pump was put in, I've gotten as high as 33 MPG (that's incorrect)

The mpg is based on injector pulse. Larger injectors pulse less since more volume comes out with each pulse.

Mine reads 26+ on average during normal driving, fill up range always says 600+ lol
