Not the most accurate method

1- Fill tank
2 set odometer to zero and reset vehicle computer
3 drive till gauge registers 1/4 mark
4 refill tank
5 observe miles traveled on the odometer
6 divide gallons to fill up into miles traveled on the odometer
7 Result equals your MPG

I get 28mpg combined with a supercharger. This thing will pay for itself quick as heck considering I only paid $2300 for the kit.

I just got my car and I've been getting 26.5mpg on the highway and 24.5 combined the last 2 days. Yes, it could be better. But all cars could be better. And for the performance, I'm happy with this as it is higher then my last car.

I've gotten close to that without spending $2300.00 for a supercharger.

I'd be interested in seeing some photos confirming your $2300 supercharger investment on improving your MPG.

Have you ever calculated how many miles and how many gallons of gasoline it would take to obtain a return on your $2300 investment?

BTW I only use regular 87 octane and get excellent highway mileage.

well I just got mine and i am averaging 17.6mpg. I got 176 miles on half a tank. My Xterra got 11.95mpg and sometimes I would only get 100 miles on a half tank. So lower payment + better gas mileage = happier gas card!

Our 2011 Explorer gets 27/28 all day long at 70 & 75 MPH highway. On the window sticker highway is rated at 25. I've seen 30 MPG on 2-lane 55 MPH roads. Has a K&N panel filter. Little over 100K miles. 3.5L V6 4X4. I think the newer ones are ecoboost turbo 4 cylinders. Fantastic truck. I'm in the flat central plains. Recommend you try one for a few days before deciding.

G37 content: It gets high 20's, can't complain.

27.5 MPG - 100% Highway.
On a 60 mile trip from Lancaster, PA to Baltimore, MD with the cruise set at 72, very hilly route. According to the on-board system.
18K on the clock.

I drive fairly aggressively, but not crazy.. Usually 75-80 on the highway and quick acceleration in city.. I am getting 22.7 on the last 500 miles for my car. Only time I've reset it since buying, previous owner got 19.9 on 33k miles.

I do about 15 minutes highway 15 minutes city each way to and from work and mostly city during the weekends. Putting premium in her, of course.
