A well tuned SL6 can get 20-25 mpg in a 3000 lb car, you don't need a turbo to get that.
(the trouble with the turbo is that you will use the extra power and that drops the mpg. Let's face it, more power is made by burning more air/fuel.

I was just wondering what kind of gas mileage you guys have pulled out of the turbo /6's. I'm currently building a fairly stock /6, I am putting the 198 rods but most of the rest of the motor will be stock. I am trying to get plenty of gas mileage because i have my other car with a 361ci engine for power, but i can't drive it everyday (9 mpg kills for everyday use). Nick |
