Hey!
I´ve only had a couple of miles on my turbo yet. I´m wondering about how the turbo affect the fuel consumption...

What´s your experince? How many percent does it increase?

I´m running a MCX with stock jetting.
 
I avg 15 to 16 mpg, which is about the same as preturbo.
 
I don`t know what I`m getting but I find my gauge drops fast.But then again I`m on the throttle alot more and doing alot more riding /taking pokes at the big hills than before now that it goes :Rockon: :4STroke:
 
to create more power ,you require more energy ,more energy reqires more fuel ,this fact remains constant as long as your efficiencies remain constant ,which means that if you pull the trigger hard...alot then your gas milage will be worse ,i find that at normal trail speeds my consumption is about the same but when i hit the lake and go ballistic it really chews up the dead dinosaurs.
 
fuel

does anyone ever build a race car to save on fuel.???????????????

dont think so

if you ride it so your not in the turbo much than it may be better.
but then why did ya spend time and money to have one.?
