That will happen. Superchargers increase the VE% of the engine, increasing
fuel economy.

You guys aren't going to believe this, but on the VA trip I bettered about
20MPG on my sixer with the S/C attached to it!! I could hardly believe it
myself, but my gas mileage was almost as good as my buddies' stock s10. On
the trip down my I got about 350 miles out of 15 gallons of gas. That adds
up
to 23.3MPG, better than even my window sticker said this thing would do
stock!! Of course my city mileage sucks cuz I'm a leadfoot, but highway
driving (at 80MPH I might add) was a real shocker.
