How much do you get to a tank?
 
This question is intended for blown moosestangs only. Im getting about 110-140 miles to a tank. All my info is in the sig.

What about you?

Dayum. Dont mean to troll, but a guy i work with has a 1967 mustang built, blown, cammed, putting down over 1000hp at the wheels.
He goes through a full tank of gas driving to work and back, 20 mile round trip.

lol......

I dunno, but he runs low 10's at 5,600ft elevation. it IS steet legal when the slicks are off of it, but he hardly ever drives it further than the carwash. he normally flatbeds it to the track

most stockish 4.6L mustang GT's will get 220-260 a tank in mostly highway driving. Common city mileage is 13-17mpg, highway is 19-26. Your blower is clearly being used a lot or your tune is excessively rich with mileage that poor. Stay out of the boost or get a better tune if that's applicable.

No, I was just curious. I never asked why it was that bad either... I just simply started a post, with the intentions for everyone to share what they get... not what im getting.

That doesent count cause you go 200mph then kill the engine and coast to a stop , get back on it to 200, kill engine, repeat.

lol......
