i live exactly 30 mins from where i work... and i drive my capri everyday and i fill my gas tank every 4 days.... but i dont take it easy neither...

450cc injectors and 16-18 psi sucks some serious 93 octane down bud....

actually i had a little piece of shit get stuck to the ball in my boost controller...  held it open so that the car ran at 10-12psi  and wouldnt boost any higher... the car went 6 days on a tank (all 6 work days) then i cleaned my boost controller and im back to every 4 days..
but im also back to 16-18psi...

Yeah, the gas thing was really never an issue, it just cracked me up, when I read about how others are getting almost twice what I get! I try to keep my foot out of it, besides when I want mileage, I drive my storm! There was a guy in town that actually had an 11 second storm, i never saw or heard it! There is a guy who runs drifters here in town, he is the only one I know of that works on turbos! I went by his shop the other day, and he obviously heard my BOV, he and his partner both perked up and looked real hard at the red rocket!
I have read through Corky's "maximum boost" book, it helped me to understand the working basics.
Heres a quick shot of the first one I bought that started the whole thing.
