I have a turbo on my GSR and I really don’t see any cut down on gas. But then again im not putting it in boost every time I take off from a red light. The only time you use more gas is when you get in boost. more air = more gas. I think its all in how you drive your car. I may put $5-$10 more a month in gas then when I was pre-turbo. and that’s at $2.50 a gallon so that’s only 2-4 gallons more a month. do the math i use 3/4 of a tank a week 4 weeks is 3 tanks a month integra has what an 11 +/- gallon tank. that’s 33 gallons on a bad month that is a 12% increase in gas a month.
