My MPG went down with the supercharger, I'm at about 16.5 mpg city (.5 better than an SS) and my highway basically went unchanged. I see no way that a supercharger is going to increase your mpg, your making more power on the same engine, why would it go up? Turbo MAYBE. So it has got to be in the tuning.

So basically what Gretchen said.

Yeah but they're typically doing a turbo'd four cylinder as opposed to a V6.
