my Cruze turbo MPG results
I own a 2011 Cruze 1.4L turbo with auto trans. and have been playing with it a little bit, mostly attempting less boost by the addition of counter springs and hoping for more MPG. So far I have not seen any type of improvement over the stock setup. I baby the car and even pull it into neutral when coasting to avoid the factory normal downshifting of gears. I think I will try some simple aero mods instead of messing with the turbo anymore. What it is is what it is. I get around 36.5mpg. These are 'real' numbers. My drive is 50 miles one way and back everyday with minimal stop signs. No high speed driving, 60mph. top speed.
