Default Dezod Turbo Kit

For those with the Dezod turbo set up, what fuel MPG's are you getting about? I want to turbo my car badly but I'm afraid it'll kill my MPG's.
Please advise.

Thank you.

A quick search will yield that the majority of members here achieve gas mileage comparable to stock. You'll have to drop a bit more cash on premium, but other than that your mileage should not change drastically.

All of this obviously depends on your particular tune of course...but you won't be looking at V8 mileage or anything.

Yeah I know I'd have to use better fuel for the turbo but thanks for the response. I was just worrie it would drop drastically to like 12-15 MPG's but as long as it stays around 20 MPGs that's ok with me. Thanks again.

honestly,if your going boost,MPG shouldnt be a issue,the whole point is going fast...and once that kit is on ur car,like me,its very hard to stay out of bost and maintain a decent mpg,but i can say,for me i say 22 mpg driving normal..just make sure you can a really good tune,that plays a big role in it also,as well as maintaince,but for me i love my dezod kit,its like a whole new monster

If you behave driving and don't have your foot to the floorboard, it can get BETTER fuel economy than stock. That's right! Better. With our 3" exhaust and turbo, we have recorded highway mileage of about 41MPG doing steady state 70mph.

Coming from kit owners themselves, you can see this thing can really eat up some hybrids in more than one way. ;)

I checked my miles on the dash indicator and my car average about 34 mpg. (Thats what the dash say dont ask me) I am boosted with the Descendent Kit. As long as you dont punch it a lot you will see good gas mileage.
