Whats up guys, just curious as to what kind of gas milage you are seeing usually with your SRT4's, mainly higway guys? Have you had any issues? Thanks alot for the info, looking at the possibility of trading my 6 in for something quicker, but still want good MPG right now and reliability:D

highway without boosting ~ 30 mpg
highway with boost ~ 24 mpg

city ~ anywhere from 15 mpg to 24 mpg (depeding on how much gas you give it)

I actually calculated these number after I got the car (and installed my stage 1 pcm)
I just drove to Fla this summer and I got 24 mpg 'round trip (~2200 miles) And that was WITH boosting.

MODS:
Stage 1 PCM
17" rims, stock tires

I drive approx. 100 miles daily ( all hiway ), and get 29 MPG. If I go out and play with the kids in town, I can chase that down to about 11/12 MPG, using mamouth amounts of boost.But overall, I'll average 27MPG day in & day out. Figured over 40,000 miles.

I need someone to sit in my backseat and hit me upside the head everytime I boost. 20MPG 80% Highway.:mad:

When I had the stock turbo, my gas mileage was poor. Now w/ the upgrade it has improved significantly. I can cruise all day and not spool at all. :bigthumb:

Hey Mr. Hozay that reminds me...do you know if the Stage 3 improves your mieleage by much?

I wouldn't see how. It spools just as fast if not faster then the stock turbo. Then again, I dont have stg 3. I would suggest asking those who have it such as PsiChick, wheatburner, etc.
