Others have reported MPG gains of 1-3 after installing. With the vanes all the way open(slowest spooling/least boost) the GT2056V behave the same as the stock turbo. With the vanes closed you can get 10lbs around 1300 rpm.

Word to the wise:Have your oil feed line made from flexible stainless(easier install than a hard line) and have it IN HAND before starting. DO NOT trust a shop when they say 'we can make you a hose while you wait'
