Fuel Economy for supercharged 6.0L

[d11_dozer]

Hello All,
I've got the Harrop HO2 Cam with OTR and 2300 supercharger.
Just wondering how to improve fuel economy?

Blower and cam will never be used in same sentence as fuel economy!


make sure tune is on point, and Drive it low rpm if fuel is a concern

Would a bigger fuel pump and injectors make a difference

cruising AT speed should be about the same as factory if not better, its just any time u are on the pedal u will use more, even with the rotors spinning and bypassed the environment in the manifold is different to n/a, fuel pump and injectors only supply the needed fuel they dont change commanded usage at all

Tuned engines are always far more efficient than factory settings and not just from a performance point but also for fuel economy.

C’mon, there’s no call for such rude words!

This sentence should be prepended with “properly” … dunno of most tuned engines are properly tuned?
But yes, a benefit of not caring about emissions is that you can tune for economy instead.

Agree. If you are worried about fuel consumption buy a 4-cylinder car (or even a motor cycle). You want power, comfort, feeling-great, sounding magnificent, you just need to pay the price. If you are a greenie, just invest in a windmill as an offset (LOL).

I guess the real question is what are you getting now economy wise and what type of driving? If you’ve only just gotten the car you might think it’s awful from what your used to but it might actually be good consumption for a supercharged 6 litre.
