rickyrick562 Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 i was just wondering what kind of gas milage you guys get with a supercharger. I've been hearing it drastically drops but others say if you drive it right it will improve mpg so idk jus let me know what you guys know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterp Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 (edited) There is no reason for a supercharged or turbocharged vehicle to get any different mileage than the same N/A motor under cruise/part throttle; my truck has a large Paxton blower and gets stock mileage (except for the blower & injectors & MAP sensor, the engine is still stock). The Radix (positive displacement) blowers do actually improve efficiency, we've always seen MPG go up 1-2 MPG. If you have a forced-induction vehicle and the freeway cruise MPG is worse after the blower/turbo install that is a direct reflection on your PCM tune; if the WOT mileage is worse, well then that's a direct reflection of your "fun factor".

8hnpSS Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 hell my average economy went from like 14 something to 11.4 once i got my radix LOL. but thats just how i drive my truck my mpg is so low cause i only drive my truck like once a week and when i do im going fast. if it were my DD it would be alot higher. on the highway if i throw it in instant econ i still see around 17-18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
