Justen, I forwarded your answer to Brian Olson for comment. Hopefully we'll 
hear something in the next few days, but I know right now he is in the 
middle of doing a 200hp big twin and its been quite the project.

I know the race pipe tune dumps more fuel down the system, so they just by 
nature of the tune will get a lower average mpg, but if I remember the old 
emails correctly the gas mileage was still good. The turbo should only 
cause a change when running on boost, but I'll let Brian comment on that.
