    I have a twin-charged setup with T72. On 93 octane gas in mixed highway and city, I would get 22mpg regularly. On all highway, I would see as high as 25mpg. My max boost was set to 16psi.

    I am now running e85 with 18-20psi. I get around 16-17mpg on the same mixed driving.

    My current setup is actually my old setup. Car isnt running with my new stuff yet.

    Old stuff that should effect milage: ST4 cam, 130# springs, 80# injectors, custom turbo kit with T67, 3.29 gearing.
