I get anywhere in-between 220-240 miles around town and about 290-300 on the highway.

if your constantly "in boost" you will lose gas mileage...just nature of it. MORE power means MORE fuel used....

if you keep your foot of it, have a properly functioning bypass valve and a good tune the difference should be pretty minimal. Once you start laying into it though its game over

Sorry, I just saw that you were asking about gas mileage in boosted cars, mine is not.

With Whipple and T56 see about 230 for a tank with 3.73 gear, helped alot going to a Cobra baffled tank, would let it get below 1/2.

E85 all the time and when I'm driving it, I am regularly in boost and at WOT. So I usually get about 11.

I accelerate pretty heavy and do about 75/80 on the freeway. I'm lucky to get 16mpg.

32VALVR & Mach828 I noticed that both of you have auto transmissions. My Mach 1 is an auto and I plan on installing a Procharger blower later on this year. What did you guys do to help strengthen the auto transmission to handle the added HP & TQ?
