Ok guys, I am now on my second tank of 93 octane. I am on pace for 280-300 miles on a tank, which is equal or better to stock. This is for normal driving. So basically, the MPG on the s/c tC can very between 17-28 MPG, depending on how it is driven. For normal daily driving (vac driving, not boost driving), you can achieve great MPG for a F/I car. If you drive the hell out of it, MPG will suffer.

Ok, this is an update on my third tank of 93 in my s/c tC. My first tank, I got 17-18 mpg. My second tank, I got 18-19 mpg. My third tank I got 20-21 mpg. The gas mileage seems to be getting better and better. This is a GOOD thing!

Now I've run 2 tankfuls through with my supercharger. I got 23.6 mpg this time. Big improvement over the 20.8 I got on the first tank. I'll have another update in about a week.My mileage should easily get better cuz I'll be swappin the 17's back on 4 winter.
