Yeah, that does make a lot of sense. I think I will refrain from the EOC.

I already do a decent amount of Engine on Coasting.

Curious tho what is the difference between going EOC and just shutting the car off after you are parked and done driving? I have noticed that if I am really getting on it a lot that the car has its own sort of turbo timer high speed fan cycle after I turn it off.

Thanks for the tips guys! Plans are also to get a Stage 1 Tune to bump up the HP/TQ and according to most reviews this bumps up the MPG nominally(1-2mpg observed). Not saying its a guarantee but worth it for more enjoyable driving to me :-).

All in all she doesn't do too bad for a DOHC Turbo 6 cylinder that weighs a boat load!
