MPG on a 4.0 w/ TRD SC

Can anyone here with a 4.0 and a SC tell me what your fuel economy is with civil driving? Did it go up or down?

 

Excuse my lack of initialism... what is SC?

 

single cab

 

My DC got 18.1 with a tank of conservative driving....

I was driving 75 to 90 on the freeway and hard braking and burning out of stops but now I'm keeping my freeway speed down to 70 to 80 and easing into and out of stops.... also note my taco has 1800 miles so normal brake-in could also be a factor.

 

on crap.. duh.. that's what happens when you start surfing the net at 6:00 in the morning half asleep.. I thought he was asking about a mod..

harry.. what are you comparing it to? civil driving as compared to street racing? civil vs. ?? up or down???

 

ohhhhhh, okay well if thats the case I can't help ya there

could also mean Super Chicken

 

Yea, I realize that now.... I was going to delete my post but I decided that sometimes it's okay to look foolish.

 

Sorry I am talking about the 4.0 and a Super Charger.

And By Civil driving I mean obeying all post speed limits and keping the rpms under 4k.

I am wondering if the boost helps or hinders the mpg wwhen not at wide open throttle.

 

How about 17-19 mpg. My driving is mostly city.

Do you know what you were getting before it?

 

I decided aganst the S/C until the fuel situation is more predictible.
Bone stock TRD 4 X 4 Access cab Off Road gave me 24+ in mixed driving to the EAA in Oshkosh. I did recheck the math. And I did use the auto`s gears.
I will check it again after changing the boxes to M1.
I have an MRI at Madison V A that will be perfect for that.

 

I think Dan was refering to Premium fuel prices not problems with the SC install.

 

That is not what TRD and my dealer said.
They are turning down about $5,000 bucks. Who would you belive?
Damn the price. I was refering to availibility.

 

Said about the headers, and TRD S/C and breathing system.
