So what's the advantage anyway- It already sounds like a bada$$ 4 barrel lappin down the fuel when I put the coals to her..

Patman seems to have had good luck with it though...

You ever look at the sticker mpg's at the dealerships. The 4six and 5.4L trucks are very close to the same as far as mpg's. That's what really doesn't make sense - Why the hell would you buy a truck with a 4six???

Shoot Chester , Neals NA motor gets better mileage than a stock 4six..A turbo is non restrictive vrs a blower using a belt - if driven normally I'll bet you better the mileage.
