Man, that looks cool. I'd love to hear the turbo spool up. This thing is sooo quiet. What effect has all of that had on your MPG.....assuming you keep your foot out of it and can drive normal, I know I probably couldn't?

I think it may be about 1 mpg better if you can keep you foot from making the cool noise.

I cannot wait to get the the BPV on this so it will make more cool turbo sounds.
Note the CP-E ECU reflash to give you 100% throttle control is now available and two users report a large jump in mileage as a side affect. 30 mpg ish....
I am following it with interest but as I live in Smog Check California I cannot do this for fear of not passing smog.

My Mileage has remained about the same.
I do find it easier to not spool up the turbo as you can hear it start around 2300 rpm.
Cool noise just begs you to boost it though which is bad for mileage.
I just ordered my Forge BPV....
Downside is my wife keeps informing me it sounds like it is flushing.....
It is fun to boost in next to someone with their window down. You get some really odd looks...
