Why do you have to be a buzz kill? What's next? The electric super charger doesn't double my horsepower? Sheesh!

You'll be glad to know that BPD just purchased 2 ECOBOOST Taurus patrol cars and 2 ECOBOOST Explorers all rigged with those new license plate readers that can read up to 1000 plates per second.

I know this is the V6 section, but i just wanted to share that those numbers are possible. If I got 69 mph on the freeway, i get 33mpg on 91 octane, my power numbers are 803whp/937tq. If I drive at 80-85mph, i get 28-29mpg. I have twin turbos, before i had a maggie and was getting 16-17mpg depending on how fast i was going. Like Gretchen, I'm running rich right now too. It's getting tuned correctly this Wednesday, and I'm hoping for mid to high 30s for my mpg.
I can see a vette getting 40mpg, especially with the weight difference.

did you perhaps mean increase in MPG? Because I'm pretty sure your new SC is going to increase your HP...

Not to throw this converstation the wrong direction but do others here seem to get better fuel milage cruising around the 80MPH mark then 70? I have 315's on the rear and 275's up front with injen cold air intake, intake manifold spacer and trifecta tune and drive in sport? I get around 26MPG.

I get my best mpg at 69mph. I lose a few when I cruise around 80mph.
