Cool Calling all Boosted Cars!!

Hi Guys, I started up a Fuel Economy Team called Team Turbocharged! in the Garage area. I will post a link to it bellow.

Lets see how many of us with Turbo/Supercharged cars can still pull down some good MPG numbers out of our Premium Fuel weekend warriors!

I have posted up my 08' Saab 9-3 2.8T V6 6 speed. Currently getting just over 50% over EPA.



Join in if you have a boosted car!! EcoModder Team Competition

Yes, Procharger is a company that builds Superchargers. I couldn't figure out how to remove it from the Poll :-(.

I just acquired a Buick Park Avenue Ultra with supercharger. So far I've been averaging 26 mpg according to the factory readout. At times the instant readout has been a lot higher so I think I can do better but it's VERY tempting to use the supercharger once in a while.

I want to turbo my insight, but I don't think it will ever happen. When I get my Mustang turbocharged I'll join this group for sure!
