So I highly doubt you get 20+ mpg in a turbo build while beating on it. You may get 20+ mpg idling or under 2k, other than that, I highly doubt it.
it's a boosted car man. that's why. it runs on non aggressive cams and is tuned for boost so it only consumes large amounts of fuel under boost. that's why all motor hondas are such a pita. you guys don't realize when you swich to aggressive cams do all of your motor work. you will get rotary gas mileage. it's all in the tune. a 400+whp turbo 4cyl. will easily pull 25 mpg plus on the highway. and about 17-22mpg city. so if he does mix of highway and city he'll easily pull an average of 25 mpg. my car makes almost 100 more whp than a b16 and is almost half a liter larger and pulls better gas mileage than that same b16. why do you think the vast majority of tuners boost their cars when they wanna make real power. my boys tuned jdm b18c in an eg hatch pulls worse gas mileage than my 240 hehe.
