I have gotten a best of 13-14mpg as of right now. I'm hoping the next couple tanks raise a little higher as Jon updated my tune to get rid of some pinging/spark knock.

It still sounds sweet though...the noise the blower makes with a cai is almost worth the loss in mpg hahaha

Default Supercharger with No Lift

Is anyone running the Sprintex superchager on a stock/leveling kit 2 or 4 door jeep? Just wondering how much the supercharger has affected your mileage? My mileage really dropped once the SC was installed but that could be do to the the larger 35's and the 3.5 inch lift. I pretty much install all 3 at the same time. any info would help

So what kind of mileage are you seeing?

I am currently averaging 15.5L/100km

I am running it on a 2.5" BB and 35's. Hand calculated I've been getting an average of 15.5 mpg mixed city/hwy but mostly city.
The computer varies from 13.2-14.1mpg lately.

This is with a 6speed and the stock 3.21's. The 1.5 or so mpg I lost by adding the kit is totally worth not having to downshift over the slightest inclines.
