We all knew that ALL auto mfrgs. have been padding their MPG figures all along. They get their #'s while running on a Dyno thus no wind resistance, and only 2 tires for rolling resistance. There's no way real world MPG can come close to Dyno MPG.

I have stated over and over on this site that turbo's were a double edge sword. Sure, they can vary CID with air but they also are the worst for BSFC figures.
And yet people on this site state over and over that they want a 5.0 turbo engine to tow with. LOL, good luck with that. As dockmasterdave stated above, "horsepower= burning gas." You take a little ol turbo engine and make it a 7.0 CID with the turbo's air flow and it will burn 7.0 worth of fuel. It really is that simple.
