yes you can run vaccum areas in 14 range for great gas mileage. when i had a 2 rotor single turbo i was in the 23-24 mpg area too, but if you go into boost thats when i would lose my MPG!

If you have not checked the thread it might be worth doing. See how I ended up with 27.7 mpg highway cruising.

sinlgle turbo's, especially large ones, should net the car more MPGs.
