as long as you keep your foot out of it. My '86 Shelby Turbo is aroudn 225
HP.. and gets over 30MPG.... when I can hold my foot up long enough.. but
when I'm hard on it through a tank.. it's closer to 11-12MPG. With the
2.2/2.5L's.. raising the boost levels doesn't seem to make much difference
on light throttle mileage.. but makes a major difference on full throttle
mileage.
