I have done the math with the Hahn Stage 3 and it seem to be slightly off but not enough for me to be out of gas when it shows lots left on range.

Centrifugals on my s-10 and 1500 with a L31. Maggies on the SS's. None showed better MPG. Not that I don't belive, just not in my experiences.

Ordered the Solstice: Black with leather, steering wheel controls, A/C delete (who needs A/C in a convertible). Custom turbo kit, maybe!

[quote=Shadow;680158]Well for me, this isn't my every day car. This is just my fun car. So if I get better mileage than that's just iceing on the cake, but it doesn't matter to me, because of my application for the car. I'm looking for a more spirited ride and FUN, FUN, FUN!!![/QUOTE


I just finished my Stage II monday. The power is incredible. Next I will be checking out the gas mileage on a trip out west. I have a hard time keeping my foot from stomping on the accelerator. It's a hell of a rush.

Anyway, when I needed to fill, the miles traveled (based on the tach) was about 250. So either one of three things happened here - either the numbers are correct, or the tune effects the reading on the tach, or I need to go back to school because I can't add!

So maybe the MPG for the Hahn is correct after all. Anyone else ever verified thier mileage with a Hahn turbo?
It is correct. Manual calculations have verified this on a number of installations.
