Oh and BTW, figuring mileage based on the value of your gas tank level thru hp tuners is NOT the best way....the best way is posted in the hptuners forum, you use your injector table, your injector PW, etc.... and let the histogram do the math for you.

a turbo is helping the air in with otherwise waste heat instead of the pistons having to suck it in which should therefor help VE
with the subaro comparo - most factory turbo vehicles use small, restrictive turbos to get good response

It is a small turbo on my subaru. But that means less restriction in the exhaust. There is no "free energy". Yes it uses heat that would be wasted but it does cause an exhaust restriction in doing so.
