The difference being: you're not trying to sell us something, so nobody's on your case asking you to "prove it!" by showing some acceptable, reliable & valid data.

The problem with the company in question is that their MPG data, which they're relying on for marketing purposes, is JUNK.

If they want to market MPG, they need to scientifically demonstrate the difference between pre- and post- turbo fuel economy. "Driving around" testing is all they've done to date, according to the company itself, and it doesn't qualify as good data.
I hear what your saying.

I live fairly close to them and I'm trying to find someone that has had them mod their Corvette. I will let everyone know if I find anything.
