it all depends on driving style. WHen i'm driving i always shift just above 4,000 Rpms. (so i can use my secondary injectors)

Alot of people would call this jackrabit driving (driving fast from the light) but i never run it WOT right off the light.. i rev 1st out to 3k, than all the other gears to 4k or a little above. Usually puts me at 70 mph by the time i get in 5th. and by doing so i get around 250 miles to a tank

(not calling you stupid, but the only smilie with the up arrow ) I pretty much do the same. When I really race i redline, and I get less that 10 MPG, at one point i downed 1/2 a tank in about 15 to 20 miles. kinda sux, but that is the price to pay for a turboII. ZOOM ZOOM
