Non sequential better on Gas milage in city?
I was wondering if going Non sequential would increase MPG a little more then sequential?
I am questioning this becuase the turbo will only kick in around 3500 - 4k rpms.
If you are shifting easy you should be able to keep the rpms under this easily..?
Has any one tested this theory?

The driver and tuning would be the differentiator there.
Regardless of whether its seq or non-seq, if you are easy on the throttle in lower RPMs, you will flow less air and won't build boost, therefore you will use less fuel.

I feel that if you don't adjust your driving, non seq can get you better mileage as the engine will not make boost in the lower rpms. And boost means more fuel. So yeah, if you just want to cruise around I think it can
if you want to save the world buy a toyota prius these cars are not really good on gas, there even worse when you mod them up. I dont think it would matter much anyway between seq. and non-seq. shift @ 3K
